Does anyone know what currency this is and in which country?

Quarter Eagle, $2.50, United States. Why do you ask?

Welcome to the Forum.

It does say “United States of America” and 21/2 dollars on the coin so you can assume that is correct.

  This is an 1808 U.S. quarter eagle ($2.50 gold piece), an extremely valuable one-year type coin. Only 2,710 were issued. I think the coin in your photo is the finest known, graded MS 65 by PCGS, which sold for $2,350,000 at the auction of the D. Brent Pogue Collection in 2015.  I assume it isn't yours!

Is this another bot post? It is plain to see what the coin says.

The photo was copied from a Stack's-Bowers auction, which means that coin info was likely available to the poster at the source.
