The $2.50 Indian Gold Quarter Eagle introduced a groundbreaking design. It was the first time the United States Mint utilized an incuse-relief striking process, where the designs were stamped into the coin's surface rather than raised.

The Historical Significance

During the peak of the Great Depression, the federal government initiated a program to collect all circulating gold coins to address the financial challenges of that period. Unfortunately, this led to the significant loss of a large portion of America's historical coins. The collection of America's gold coins in the 1930s resulted in their melting down into gold bars.

Consequently, the scarcity of Pre-1933 gold coins makes them highly sought after by investors, collectors, and history enthusiasts. Only a limited number of these coins survived the government's collection efforts, making each one a valuable national treasure.
