Indian Eagles
1908-S $10 MS63+ PCGS. CAC. Satiny orange-gold luster is original, and the surfaces are free of any severe abrasions. Minor strike weakness occurs on the eagle's shoulder, although the obverse is better-defined. The Plus designation and CAC endorsement are well-earned.
The 1908-S is famously among the lowest-mintage dates in the Indian eagle series with 59,850 pieces. Uncirculated survivors are spread throughout the grade spectrum but are decidedly scarce at all levels. Quality-conscious collectors on a budget will want to seek a piece in MS63 or MS64, as such coins are far more obtainable than their higher-grade counterparts but still offer a degree of rarity and can come with outstanding eye appeal. Such is the appeal of this example, which surpasses its peers on technical and visual grounds. Population: 46 in 63 (1 in 63+), 75 finer. CAC: 3 in 63, 19 finer (7/17).
From The Morgan Hill Collection.
