Description

Near-Gem 1908-D Five Dollar

1908-D $5 MS 64 PCGS. This rich, crimson-gold half eagle is barely abraded and exceptionally well struck for the issue. Of particular note is the Indian's headdress and the eagle's shoulder, both of which display noteworthy boldness of detail. With only 148,000 pieces originally produced, the first-year 1908-D boasts the fourth lowest mintage in the entire Indian half eagle series.
From the Helyn Van Huffel Collection.
