1903 PCGS MS-66 $2.50 Liberty Quarter Eagle Gold Coin
The Liberty Quarter Eagle Coin was the official $2.50 circulating coin of the United States from 1840 to 1907.
Containing 0.12094 troy ounces of gold, they feature a distinguished design by Christian Gobrecht, which holds the record for the longest unchanged design in American gold coinage history.
Similar to other pre-1933 gold coins, many $2.50 Liberty Half Eagles disappeared during the economic crisis of the 1930s. With rising gold prices, these coins were confiscated, hoarded, and melted down for their gold content.

A PCGS MS-66 Coin
PCGS—Professional Coin Grading Service appraises and grades coins using the Sheldon Grading Scale, which ranks coins from 1 to 70.
