Description

1908-S Indian Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).

A delightful honey-rose example of this perennially popular Indian eagle issue. Boldly to sharply struck with lustrous and appealing surfaces at the BU grade level. The premier San Francisco Mint Indian eagle, the 1908-S is a low mintage affair with just 59,850 pieces produced. A surprising number of high grade Mint State examples are known, suggesting that some coins were set aside by contemporary Americans as the first examples of the new type struck in the West Coast coinage facility. The total Mint State population is limited by Indian eagle standards, nonetheless, and examples are avidly sought by numismatists irrespective of numeric grade.

PCGS# 8861. NGC ID: 28GL.

Estimate: $7’000.00
