1908-D Motto Indian Eagle, MS65
Surprisingly Challenging in High Grade

1908-D $10 Motto MS65 PCGS. Ex: Harbor View. A substantial mintage of 836,500 Indian eagles was struck at the Denver Mint in 1908 after the Mint switched to the new design with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on the reverse. Paradoxically, the 1908-D Motto is one of the most challenging issues of the series in high grade. Of course, branch mint type collectors prize the 1908-D as the first year of the Motto design.

The present coin is an attractive Gem, with well-detailed design elements and vibrant mint luster throughout. Only the most insignificant signs of contact are present and eye appeal is top-notch. Population: 13 in 65, 9 finer (6/16).
