Description

The 1915 Indian Head Quarter Eagle $2.50 Gold NGC MS60 is a certified uncirculated example of one of the most artistically distinctive gold coins in American numismatic history. Struck by the United States Mint, the coin carries a $2.50 face value and features the iconic incuse Indian Head design by sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt — a sunken-relief portrait of a Native American chief in full headdress on the obverse, with LIBERTY arched above and the date below. The reverse presents a perched bald eagle surrounded by the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and TWO AND A HALF DOLLARS, continuing the same incuse style. The coin weighs 0.1209 troy ounces of gold. Graded MS 60 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), this piece has been independently evaluated and is encapsulated in an NGC tamper-evident slab bearing certification number 3854714-025. The Indian Head Quarter Eagle series ran from 1908 to 1929, making any uncirculated survivor a compelling centerpiece in a collection of early twentieth-century U.S. gold coinage.

Frequently asked questions

This coin has been graded MS 60 — Mint State uncirculated — by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), one of the leading third-party grading services. It is encapsulated in an NGC slab bearing certification number 3854714-025, which can be verified directly on NGC's registry.
The Indian Head Quarter Eagle series, designed by sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt, introduced a rare incuse (sunken-relief) style to U.S. gold coinage in 1908. Rather than raised devices, the portrait and eagle are recessed into the coin's surface — a technique inspired by ancient Egyptian art and championed by President Theodore Roosevelt's coinage reform program.
The 1915 Indian Head Quarter Eagle contains 0.1209 troy ounces of gold and is struck in 0.900 fine (90%) gold alloy, consistent with all U.S. gold quarter eagles of this era. The remaining 10% is copper, which contributes to the coin's warm reddish-gold color.
Yes. The Indian Head Quarter Eagle series was produced from 1908 through 1929 at multiple U.S. Mint facilities. Collecting the series by date and mint mark is a well-established numismatic pursuit, and uncirculated examples like this MS 60 coin represent the upper tier of the series in terms of preservation.
