Description

1907 Indian Eagle. No Periods. MS-64+ (PCGS).
A frosty orange-gold example with full mint luster and an impressively bold strike for this challenging issue. The Philadelphia Mint produced 239,406 examples of the modified No Periods design in 1907. As the first examples of the new eagle to reach the general public, many 1907 No Periods coins were saved for posterity and Mint State pieces are plentiful in an absolute sense. On the other hand, many of these coins suffer from soft striking detail in the centers as well as general mishandling. For specialists seeking superior coins for their collections, this issue can be challenging at the finest levels of Mint State preservation, as here. This is a significant opportunity to acquire a near-Gem example of the first circulating coin of the Saint-Gaudens $10 Indian eagle type.
PCGS# 8852. NGC ID: 28GF.
From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set.

Estimate: $4000
