1914 $2.50 Indian Gold Quarter Eagle MS-65 PCGS

---

The 1914 gold quarter eagle represents a fascinating chapter in United States coinage, distinguished by its innovative incuse design where the details are sunken below the flat surface of the coin rather than raised above it. This specific piece was produced at the Philadelphia Mint, which is indicated by the absence of a mint mark on the coin. Out of a total mintage of 240,000 pieces struck for this year, finding an example preserved in such an outstanding state of preservation is a notable discovery for enthusiasts of early twentieth-century American money. Struck in 90 percent pure gold with a actual metal weight of 0.1209 troy ounces, the coin features traditional national inscriptions. Legible on its surfaces are the classic mottos "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM". This specimen has been officially graded as Mint State 65 (MS-65), a high grade that highlights the exceptional preservation of its recessed details and original luster, surviving more than a century in superb condition.
