1912-S Ten Dollar, MS65
Conditionally Rare

1912-S $10 MS65 PCGS. The 1912-S is not a key date in the absolute sense, although it is a major rarity in Gem condition, many times rarer than its Philadelphia counterpart. Indian gold specialist Mike Fuljenz writes in Indian Gold Coins of the 20th Century: "The highest concentration of Uncirculated specimens lie at the MS62 level and probably fewer than 100 examples are known in properly graded MS63 or better." The Gem example offered here is near the Condition Census, as only three numerically finer coins are reported by PCGS and NGC combined (11/17). Luminous satin surfaces yield warm honey-gold luster and show no distracting abrasions. The strike is sharp, and eye appeal is generous. Among the finest examples of the date that most collectors will ever have a chance to acquire. Population: 14 in 65 (1 in 65+), 1 finer (11/17).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28GX, PCGS# 8872, Greysheet# 9768)
