Indian Eagles
1914-D $10 MS67 NGC. While the 1914-D is one of the more-available branch mint Indian eagles, the mintage of 343,500 pieces makes the issue more challenging than the high-mintage 1910-D. Nor are many high-grade pieces awaiting certification, since a large quantity of the issue did not escape the 1933 gold melt decree. Moreover, the issue is scarce in Gem or finer grades and it is definitively rare in Superb Gem condition.
This example displays the finely grained, mattelike surfaces that characterize the 1914-D. The coin is fully lustrous and exceedingly well-struck, with alternating reddish-gold and greenish-gold areas and exceptionally few marks to interrupt the high-end surfaces. The eye appeal is extraordinary. Neither service has certified a numerically finer 1914-D. Census: 6 in 67, 0 finer (10/16).
From The Soluna Collection.
