Lot Description

A frosty, apricot-gold example with an overall bold strike and uncommonly strong eye appeal for the assigned grade. The penultimate issue in the Indian half eagle series and the final one prior to 1929, the 1916-S is a median rarity for its type that is scarce even in lower Mint State grades. The coin offered here should have no difficulty finding its way into a specialized collection.
