Lot Description

Outstanding quality and stunning eye appeal for the issue, this golden-orange example is sharply struck with full mint luster to smooth-looking surfaces. The 1914-D is one of the more available of the branch mint Indian eagle issues with a mintage of 208,000 pieces. The coins were struck at a time of growing hostility in Europe and economic skittishness at home. The great melts of the 1930s claimed many coins, while some eagles were shipped abroad in the form of foreign payments, where they remained until after World War II before returning stateside. The majority of survivors are heavily bagmarked, the telltale signs of this storage and transportation in sacks. Premium Choice and Gem Mint State examples are in short supply and with only a small handful of specimens that may be considered finer, this a significant NGC MS-66 for the advanced gold enthusiast.
