I love it! If it’s not too much trouble can you tell a little about the ones you know about? Mainly, does that day 2.5 dollars? I might be able to find them but every search I’ve done on the ones I found brings up so many and I don’t know which is which.

Thank you. I have never heard of a 2.5 coin. I’ve seen a $2 bill but never anything like this. Very interesting, thank you again.

called a "quarter eagle"... and "eagle" being worth $10 and a double $20.

notice too, it has an "incused" design, meaning the image is not raised up but rather it is embedded into the coin.

I almost bought one of those $2.50 pieces back when I was a youngster of about 12. I was roaming our local flea market with a handful of money I had saved from allowances and approached the coin guy at his regular booth....interrupted him as he spoke to a comrade and told him I was there to buy that little Indian coin there marked $2.50 on the 2x2 holder....he looked at me sideways as I held out my sweaty palm holding ten dirty quarters.... I never did get my little gold indian. Nice coins you got there
