Indian Half Eagles
1909-O $5 AU50 PCGS. Variety 1. Always in demand not only for its low mintage, an extra measure of appeal comes from the 1909-O's status as the final gold issue from the final year of coinage at the New Orleans Mint. Branch mint type collectors and series specialists alike pursue examples with fervor.
This About Uncirculated coin retains a moderate amount of mint luster over its light-gold surfaces. Sharp definition remains on the central motifs. The mintmark is characteristically weak but readily visible. High point wear joins a few light, unobtrusive marks to define the assigned grade. A famous issue and the key to the Indian Head half eagle series, we expect keen competition for this thoroughly satisfying representative of the historic date and Mint.
