Select 1911-D Indian Eagle
Leading Condition Rarity

1911-D $10 MS63 PCGS. The 1911-D Indian Head eagle has the lowest business strike mintage of the series, at 30,100 pieces (not counting the experimental 1907 Wire Rim and Rolled Edge issues). David Akers considers the 1911-D the leading condition rarity of the series today. Select examples are definitely rare and the issue is prohibitively rare at the Gem level.
The present coin is an attractive Select specimen, with crisp detail on all design motifs. The pleasing orange-gold surfaces exude satiny mint luster, and overall eye appeal is excellent. A few insignificant nicks on Liberty's jaw explain the grade. This example is housed in an old green label holder. Population: 26 in 63, 16 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
