The $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle was minted from 1796 to 1929 and featured the classic Liberty Head design from Christian Gobrecht throughout the majority of its time in production at the US Mint. The 1897 Liberty Quarter Eagle in this listing is an impressive specimen that represents exceptional visual appeal within the series. Right now, the 1897 Pre-33 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle in Mint State 67 condition is available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The 1897 Pre-33 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle Coin is in Mint State 67 condition. This particular coin presents with a rich, golden hue and a radiant, satiny luster. The devices on both sides are sharply defined, with the lettering along the periphery of the design field remaining crisp.
Liberty Gold Quarter Eagles were widely circulated during the 19th and early 20th centuries as part of America’s gold standard currency system, though their small size made them somewhat unpopular for everyday transactions. The 1897 Quarter Eagle was produced at a time when an influx of gold from the Klondike Gold Rush impacted the demand for circulating currency and bank gold, resulting in rising mintage figures.
The obverse of 1897 $2.50 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagles comes with a portrait of Lady Liberty. Designed in the 1830s by Christian Gobrecht, the 4th Chief Engraver of the US Mint, this historic effigy shows Liberty in left-profile relief with a coronet crown and a ring of stars around the top of the field.
On the reverse of 1897 Pre-33 Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle Coins, you will find Gobrecht’s version of the heraldic eagle. The eagle is shown in front-facing relief with the US national shield, the arrows of war, and the olive branch of peace. The Quarter Eagles feature one of the more unique denomination engravings on US currency, with the value engraved as 2 1/2 D.
