1908 Indian Quarter Eagle. MS-65 (NGC).

Impressive Gem Mint State quality for this popular type issue in the Indian quarter eagle series. Frosty and vivid, the surfaces are bathed in blended medium gold and pale pinkish-rose. Sharply struck throughout and expectably smooth in hand for the assigned grade. Saved in significant numbers by the contemporary public as the first quarter eagle to display Bela Lyon Pratt's novel incuse design, the 1908 now ranks among the more readily obtainable Indian quarter eagles in all Mint State grades. Even so, Gems such as this are scarce in an absolute sense and rare relative to the demand that they enjoy among today's quality conscious gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 7939. NGC ID: 288Y.
