- 1916-S Indian Half Eagle. MS-62+ (PCGS). A delightful pinkish-honey example with lovely mint luster and a generally sharp strike. The S mintmark, while devoid of finer detail, is fully outlined and distinct from the surrounding field area. Although several small hoards of Uncirculated coins entered the numismatic market from overseas beginning in the early to mid 1980s, the 1916-S remains scarce relative to market demand. As well, the typical hoard coin, while invariably well struck, is heavily abraded with inferior luster quality. Accordingly this is one of the more challenging issues of its type in Mint State. With the technical quality and eye appeal offered here the 1916-S is rarer than many collectors realize, an observation that is sure to register with astute bidders. PCGS# 8532. NGC ID: 28DY.
