- Vivid Near-Gem 1910-S $10 Gold 1910-S Indian Eagle. MS-64 (PCGS). An exceptionally attractive example with uncommonly strong technical quality for this conditionally challenging issue. Sharply struck with fulsome mint luster, the surfaces are particularly noteworthy due their overall smooth appearance. Vivid colors in pinkish-rose and lighter powder-blue blanket both sides are provide outstanding eye appeal. Despite the seemingly large mintage of 811,000 coins, a substantial portion of the 1910-S eagle issue ended up a casualty in the great Treasury melts of the late 1930s. Only a few thousand pieces escaped the Mint's crucibles, with the vast majority of those in Almost Uncirculated condition or at the very bottom rung of the Mint State range. Widely regarded as one of the principal condition rarities for the entire series, finding a Choice 1910-S eagle has proven to be quite a challenge for collectors desiring such a piece to add to their holdings. The certification figures no doubt are inflated due to resubmissions and are deceptively larger than their actual rarity. As a near-Gem specimen, here is an important addition to the advanced gold specialist's cabinet. PCGS Population: 37; 10 finer (MS-66 finest). PCGS# 8867. NGC ID: 268D.
