Description
# 1911-D Indian Head Gold Eagle - PCGS MS62. A remarkable and highly sought-after key date gold coin from the iconic *Indian Head Eagle* series, this 1911-D $10 gold piece represents one of the most significant numismatic treasures of the early 20th century. Struck at the Denver Mint with an extraordinarily low mintage of just 30,100 pieces, this coin is among the rarest in the entire pre-1933 gold series. Graded PCGS MS62, this specimen exhibits the characteristic frosty orange-gold surfaces typical of the issue, with subtle greenish gold highlights. The strike is notably sharp on the obverse, with slightly less definition on the reverse, particularly around the eagle's wing and trailing leg—a diagnostic feature of this legendary rarity. The coin displays the magnificent Saint-Gaudens design with exceptional detail preserved, showcasing the intricate artistry of this numismatic masterpiece. Population data underscores the extreme rarity of this issue, with only 95 total examples graded across all levels by PCGS, and merely 75 in higher grades. Composed of 90% gold and 10% copper, the coin weighs 16.7 grams and features the distinctive raised stars edge characteristic of the series. This 1911-D represents an exceptional opportunity for the advanced gold coin collector or serious numismatic investor, offering both historical significance and remarkable scarcity.
