1908 Indian Half Eagle, MS66+
Beautifully Preserved Type Coin

1908 $5 MS66+ NGC. The 1908 may be among the most plentiful Indian half eagles, but that availability means that some pieces survive in very high grades. The 1908 is one of just a few moderately accessible dates in the series in MS66, although scarce this fine. The current coin is near the Condition Census, and is one of just two Premium Gems at NGC with a Plus designation. Frosty, glistening peach-gold mint luster adorns absolutely untouched surfaces, producing eye appeal beyond what most collectors will ever see on examples of other dates. For type purposes, this coin is simply ideal. Census: 15 in 66 (2 in 66+), 4 finer (5/23).(Registry values: N7079)
