I'm in love with this little princess. PF-66+ DCAM, CAC
And this one too: MS-65 CAC
Oh yea, now that’s some sweet eye candy. 😱
Only one I have.
Some real beauties in this thread.
Most of my quarter eagles are Indian head, but I do have these.
Love the quarter eagle - a gold coin with an odd denomination and not too much gold to be prohibitively expensive. Here's the one that got me interested in quarter eagles. Yes, it has a weak D if you look really close. Bought it raw as a 1911, and only a few months later after reading more about the series and the 1911-D did I realize it had the right die characteristics. Now in a PCGS XF-40 holder.
Also a fan of QE’s. Here’s a few of mine:
I would have to call the last one my favorite, just edging out the classic head. Interesting side note: coin 2&3 were purchased by the same family. The first was commemorating the birth of their daughter & the second on her first birthday. Coincidentally, the first was the final year of the type & the second the first year for the new one!

Wonderful addition @SilverProofQuarter1883 congrats on your newp. One of the few "affordable" gold coins for many collectors today.

Great thread. To think I was going to start a date and mintmark set of these, back when I had more income flowing and gold hadn't gone through the roof yet.

A very high grade example of a rare date! Only 3 finer at PCGS, but I doubt that they are all this choice!
