Description
1909-D Indian Half Eagle. MS-64 (PCGS).
Lustrous golden-rose surfaces are sharply struck with a full quota of soft mint luster. The 1909-D half eagle is a favorite for type collectors due to its availability. Almost three and a half million coins were struck at the Denver Mint that year, surpassing the second highest mintage in the Indian series by a factor of three. The rate of survival was above average, as well, and today the 1909-D is far and away the most readily obtainable Indian half eagle in Mint State. With undeniable originality and an impressive provenance, the Fairmont-JBR specimen offered here is among the most desirable examples currently available in the market.
PCGS# 8514. NGC ID: 28DJ.
From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
