Outstanding Gem 1908 No Motto Eagle

1908 $10 No Motto MS65 PCGS. Of the 184 No Motto Gem eagles certified by PCGS, fully 164 of them are dated 1907. While not so elusive in MS65 as the 1908-D (of which PCGS has graded just two examples in that grade), this issue, with its picayune mintage of 33,500 pieces, still presents a significant challenge for those who would collect the series. Anyone who acquires this lot would lift a significant roadblock to a complete set of Saint-Gaudens eagles. The devices are well struck, and the softly lustrous apricot-gold surfaces have only a handful of small marks. A few minor ticks on Liberty's cheek and on the eagle's leg prevent an even higher grade. Population: 18 in 65, 9 finer (12/06).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28GG, PCGS# 8853, GSID# 9747)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 16.72 grams
AGW: 0.48375oz
Mintage: 33,500


Note for clients in the European Union: This lot is considered by the European Union to be “investment gold”. We believe that it meets the criteria established in Article 344(1), point (2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC and thus should be exempt from import VAT regardless of the selling price.
