- Elusive Mint State 1909-O Half Eagle
1909-O Indian Half Eagle. MS-62 (NGC).
A technically and aesthetically superior example of this well known rarity among Indian fives. Nicely composed for the assigned grade, with sharp definition and considerable satiny luster. Just a few minor marks are noted above the eagle's head, but the surfaces are otherwise impressive beneath a glass. Warm golden-yellow in hue and attractive to view in-hand.
From a mintage of 34,200 pieces struck during the final year of operations at the New Orleans Mint, this issue has always been considered a key date to the series. It's status as the only Indian half eagle struck at this branch mint has put perennially strong demand on survivors at all levels of preservation. Usually seen in circulated grades, this is among the most challenging issues of the type to locate in Mint State. Expect strong bidder competition for the present offering.
PCGS# 8515. NGC ID: 25ZK.
