Indian Half Eagles
1910-S $5 MS64+ PCGS. CAC. The 1910-S (770,200 coins struck) ranks among the most elusive issues in this challenging series to locate in Choice condition, and full Gems are extremely rare. Thus, this CAC-approved MS64+ representative, the only MS64 submission at PCGS to have earned the coveted Plus designation, would make a fine addition to a top-quality set of Pratt half eagles where an MS65 might be unobtainable. In his recently published reference, Allan Schein rates the issue's strike 6.5 on 8, noting: "Well struck with a usually strong sharply defined mint mark." Such is the case here. The headdress elements and eagle's feathers are razor-sharp. Delicate orange-gold surfaces radiate frosty mint luster. The only mentionable marks occur in the right reverse field above IN. A fantastic example in all regards. Population: 23 in 64 (1 in 64+), 7 finer. CAC: 9 in 64, 1 finer (11/16).
