The 1926 Indian Quarter Eagle is very common like the 1925-D but it differs greatly in appearance. Another type coin issue but there seem to be far more attractive pieces available on the market compared to most other dates. For relatively cheap a collector can fill this whole in their collection for an affordable price and get a lustrous, fully struck stunner at the same time with minor difficulty.
Obverse Description
The obverse features the portrait of a Native American chieftain in formal headdress struck incuse with the words LIBERTY at the top and the date at the bottom. 13 stars frame the left and right sides: 6 at left and 7 on the right.
Reverse Description
The traditional American eagle struck incuse in the center with the words, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA at top, E PLURIBUS UNUM left of the eagle, and IN GOD WE TRUST to the right of the eagle. The denomination 2 1/2 DOLLARS struck below the eagle.
