1926 Sesquicentennial Quarter Eagle, MS66
Final Gold Classic Commemorative

1926 $2 1/2 Sesquicentennial Quarter Eagle MS66 PCGS. The National Sesquicentennial Exhibition Association marketed both silver half dollars and gold quarter eagles to celebrate 150 years of American independence. Neither the silver nor gold ventures were overly successful. Only slightly more than 14% of the million-piece silver issue was sold, while just over 20% of the gold mintage was distributed -- a total of 46,019 quarter eagles. Premium Gem Uncirculated examples of the gold issue seldom exceed the quality of this coin, which shows just a few tiny marks on its well-struck, orange-gold surfaces. PCGS has certified just one numerically finer example, plus 15 pieces in 66+ as of (3/21).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# BYLT, PCGS# 7466, Greysheet# 10213)
