1905 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle MS-66 NGC CAC
The year 1905 marked a late chapter in the long-running Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle series. Struck in Philadelphia, this 2.50 dollar denomination is composed of 90 percent gold, containing approximately 0.1209 troy ounces of the precious metal. The Philadelphia Mint produced 217,800 of these pieces in 1905, and because they carry no mint mark, they represent the classic coinage of the main United States minting facility from that era. This particular specimen has survived in an extraordinary state of preservation. It has been officially graded as Mint State 66 (MS-66), indicating a coin that retains its original luster and possesses very few distracting marks. For enthusiasts of pre-1933 American gold, encountering a coin of this caliber offers a vivid window into the turn-of-the-century currency that once circulated in daily commerce.
