Description

Key-Date 1909-O Half Eagle, AU50

1909-O $5 AU50 PCGS. The 1909-O half eagle is the final gold coin struck by the New Orleans Mint and is also that mint's only issue in the Indian Head series. With 34,200 pieces struck, it also holds the distinction as the lowest mintage of the series. Lovely apricot patina covers both sides of this key date. The details are sharp, and there are traces of light rub on the headdress, cheekbone, and wing. A shallow mark next to the forehead is noted, but otherwise the abrasions are minimal. A pleasing example of this scarce issue. (Registry values: N2998)
