The 1907 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle is the closing chapter of one of America’s longest-running coinage designs. The Liberty Head design, created by Christian Gobrecht in 1840, became a staple of American gold coinage for nearly seven decades. By the time this 1907 issue was struck, the coin had become deeply intertwined with America’s economic and cultural history.
But 1907 marked a turning point in U.S. numismatics. President Theodore Roosevelt had spearheaded a major artistic revival at the U.S. Mint, pushing for new designs that reflected the grandeur of a rising nation. That same year, the Liberty Head $2.5 was retired, replaced by the revolutionary Indian Head Quarter Eagle designed by Bela Lyon Pratt. This makes the 1907 Liberty Head not only a last-of-its-kind issue, but also a symbolic bridge between two eras of American coinage.
This is the type of coin that makes a collection stand out—scarce, historically significant, and priced to move.
