Exemplary 1908-D Motto Ten Dollar, MS66

1908-D $10 Motto MS66 NGC. Although the 1908-D Motto eagle has one of the highest mintage figures in the series at 836,500 business strikes, it is nearly as elusive in the higher Mint State grades at its No Motto counterpart, which had a mintage only one-fourth as large. Unusually, NGC has certified only three coins in Gem grade, but seven pieces in MS66 and four finer (9/09). The present Premium Gem boasts glorious luster radiating from orange-gold surfaces that are nearly mark-free. The strike is bold throughout, and the eye appeal is exemplary. This splendid coin would be a wonderful acquisition for a gold type set of the finest quality.(Registry values: N7079)
