Lot Description

Warm golden-orange color is enhanced by faint pinkish-apricot accents on this stunning Gem. The frosty luster is uniform across each side, complementing the bold strike throughout. With superb technical quality and delightful eye appeal, this piece is surely among the finest certified examples of the issue currently available. Though readily available in grades below Gem, in MS-65 and above the 1913 half eagle is a noteworthy condition rarity. This is true of all Indian fives, in fact, and competition is always strong when premium examples such as this appear on the open market.
