1908 No Motto Eagle, MS65
Only 33,500 Pieces Struck
Green CAC Sticker

1908 $10 No Motto MS65 NGC. CAC. The 1908 No Motto eagle wins the low-mintage sweepstakes among eagle issues of the year, produced to the extent of 33,500 pieces. Even though it is not as well-known, the mintage was only 50% above that of the 1908-S Saint-Gaudens, a celebrated low-production issue of 22,000 pieces among the double eagles. Part of the collector confusion may lie with the 1908-D No Motto and the 1908 With Motto, both struck in far more plentiful supply. At any rate, Gem 1908 No Motto tens are available but seldom seen finer.

Both sides feature deep orange-gold color, and the uncluttered fields display a rather cameo appearance due to the absence of the motto, an effect heightened by the paucity of visible contact on both sides. A super example of this underrated issue. Census: 30 in 65, 21 finer. CAC: 9 in 65, 5 finer (4/20).
