Two and a Half Dollar Gold Coins
Two and a Half Dollar Gold Coins were made from 1796 to 1929 with several different types as follows: --- Capped Bust to Right from 1796 to 1807 --- Capped Bust to Left in 1808 --- Capped Head to Left, large diameter from 1821 to 1827 --- Capped Head to Left, reduced diameter from1829 to 1834 --- Classic Head from 1834 to 1839 --- Liberty Head from 1849 to 1907 --- Indian Head from 1908 to 1929.
Lots of rare dates exist with all the early coins, before 1834, bringing thousands of dollars in even well worn conditions. Two and a Half Dollar Gold Coins are an exciting segment of the U.S. Gold market!

1825. NGC. MS-61.$29,995.00Brilliant yellow-gold surfaces with strong full and frosty luster that displays some reflectivity on the obverse. Marks are minor and of no significance. The strike is quite strong. Struck in an era of low mintages with only 4,434 pieces produced. Few pieces were saved and mint state examples are seldom seen. Only 12 pieces have graded finer at NGC, including a single MS-65 and a single MS-66. A beautiful example of this scarce 'Capped Bust' type.
Item #238911 (1 / 93)
1831. PCGS. MS-62.$29,995.00A very attractive example of the scarce Capped Bust Left quarter eagle 'type'. The surfaces are semi proof-like and produce flashy yellow-gold luster framed by orange-gold at the perimeter. Just 4,520 were minted with fewer than 150 estimated survivors. This rare and lovely coin will be a great addition to an advanced early gold collection!

Item #234802 (6 / 93)
1839. NGC. MS-62.$17,500.00The 27,021 coins minted is by far the fewest of the Classic Head Quarter Eagle 'type' from the Philadelphia Mint.

Item #230919 (7 / 93)
1839-C. NGC. AU-58.$10,500.00From the second year of coinage at the recently opened Charlotte mint. A modest 18,140 pieces were struck with a low survival rate and most survivors are well circulated and many are damaged. This is a high-end borderline uncirculated coin with bright lustrous surfaces and a sharp strike. It has the added appeal of being an interesting variety with a repunched date. It's also a very late die state with dramatic die cracks on both sides. Scarce, high grade and desirable!

Item #233734 (12 / 93)
1845-D. PCGS. AU-58.$6,895.00Super eye appeal with flashy surfaces that are coated with orange-gold luster. Just a touch of wear away from being mint state and only 9 have graded finer at PCGS.
Item #227927 (13 / 93)
1846-C. NGC. AU-53.$5,995.00Brilliant yellow-gold surfaces with a solid strike for the date. The mintage of 4,808 registers as the second lowest mintage for a 'Charlotte' quarter eagle (not including varieties). Difficult to find in any grade and extremely difficult this nice.
