Description

1909-D Ten Dollar Indian, MS64+
Rare High-End Example, CAC

1909-D $10 MS64+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: The Fairmont Collection. While the half eagle of this date was produced in ample numbers and is plentiful as a result, the 1909-D eagle is a much scarcer coin. Only 121,540 pieces were struck, most of which entered circulation. The Mint State survivorship exists mostly in low grades, specifically MS61 to MS63. Coins in MS64 are borderline rare, while fine pieces are far out of reach for most collectors.

This is one of only three Plus-designated pieces in MS64 at PCGS, and it is one of only four CAC-endorsed coins in Choice condition overall. The Plus designation and CAC green label are the two most distinctive recognitions of "high quality for the grade," and the incredibly small numbers of coins to carry these distinctions speaks to the rarity of the 1909-D with anything approaching decent eye appeal. In fact, this high-end MS64 coin is a rarer phenomenon than higher-grade coins overall. For the advanced collector, it is an ideal Registry coin option. A bold strike complements vibrant orange-gold luster, and scattered light abrasions are notably less impactful than those on most other Choice examples. The eye appeal of the coin fully merits its high-end status within the MS64 grade. Population: 45 in 64 (3 in 64+), 13 finer. CAC: 4 in 64, 2 finer (6/24).(Registry values: N4719)
