Gorgeous Premium Gem 1911 Eagle

1911 $10 MS66 NGC. CAC. While not accessible to quite the same extent as the late 1926 and 1932 issues, the 1911 has established itself as a date of choice among type collectors seeking an earlier With Motto year. This reputation has developed thanks to the eye appeal of extraordinary specimens such as the present Premium Gem. Lemon-gold surfaces are fantastically lustrous, with the cartwheel effect on the obverse especially bold. The finer details of the feathers on each side are unusually crisp, and only a handful of tiny marks to the left of the portrait preclude an even higher grade. NGC has certified just 11 numerically finer examples (11/09).(Registry values: N4719)
