Description

Illustrious Gem 1911 Indian Five

1911 $5 MS65 PCGS Secure. CAC. The 1911 mintage of 915,000 pieces is the highest Philadelphia Mint production of the series, and, as one might expect, the issue can be readily found in undistinguished Mint State grades. However, the cheek and open fields of the Indian half eagle design are easily abraded, and ensure that few Uncirculated pieces merit the MS65 grade. The present piece is among that small grouping, since contact is minimal on either side. The eye appeal is further ensured by a sharp strike and rich pumpkin-gold and orange-red toning. Population: 49 in 65, 1 finer (6/10).
