Lot Description

Fully lustrous rose-gold surfaces support bold to sharp striking detail throughout the main design. The D mintmark is bold, fully raised, and well rounded. Similar in high grade rarity to the equally underrated 1908-D, the 1910-D is a half eagle issue for which Choice and Gem coins are in the minority. At the assigned level, this coin from the Fairmont Collection would be difficult to improve upon.
