1926 Sesquicentennial $2.50. NGC graded MS-65 PQ. CAC Approved. Mostly untoned and well struck. Tremendous detail from a very positive impression, which collectors like better to see than wishy-washy detail; furthermore, the surfaces show sharp golden hues. No need to worry about an unsuccessful strike left by the rebound of the dies that coined this, since even a cursory examination of the piece reveals nice clarity of detail, including the centers. John R. Sinnock created both the Half Dollar and Quarter Eagle Commemoratives made to celebrate our 150th anniversary as a nation. The Quarter Eagle has a representation of Liberty on the obverse holding a torch and wearing a liberty cap denoting freedom. The building on the reverse is Independence Hall, Philadelphia, with a rising sun behind it. Initials JRS are to the right of the building. In all, 45,793 Quarter Eagles were sold for $4.00 apiece. Estimated Value $2,300 - 2,400. Categories: Commemorative Gold Coins
