Indian Half Eagles
1911-S $5 MS64 PCGS. FS-501, Repunched Mintmark. Auction appearances of the 1911-S half eagle in MS64 or better condition have been few and far between, even in recent years. Two recent offerings of a near-Gem in our auctions, in 2015 and 2016, realized nearly $13,000 each, indicating sustained collector demand for high-end examples of this date from several years earlier, when an NGC coin in the same grade realized a similar price ($12,650). This example is satiny and well-struck, showing beautiful orange-gold, lavender, and silvery hues across minimally abraded surfaces. FS-501 shows an errant S mintmark south of the primary S. This interesting Indian gold variety is readily collectible. Population: 27 in 64 (1 in 64+), 8 finer (9/17).
