Lot Description

1910-S Indian Half Eagle. MS-62 (NGC). This pretty Indian $5 blends dominant golden-apricot color with deep honey-olive undertones. Well struck for a San Francisco Mint half eagle of this type, full, soft mint luster provides further appeal. A rare coin in all Mint State grades, the 1910-S ranks sixth of 24 Indian half eagle issues in terms of total number of Uncirculated coins believed extant. Examples above the MS-62 level are particularly elusive, placing considerable collector pressure on attractive MS-62 survivors, as offered here. PCGS# 8519. NGC ID: 28DM.
