$10 Indian Gold Eagle Coin (XF)

  

Safely housed in an individual plastic flip for protection, this coin was meticulously crafted at the San Francisco Mint in 1916. Obverse Design: Represents Liberty wearing a feathered headdress in a left-profile portrait.

An arch of 13 stars appears above Liberty's head, with the date mark at the bottom of the field. Reverse Design: An American bald eagle in left-profile relief is perched on a sheaf of arrows wrapped in an olive branch. Series: Indian Gold Eagle series. Packaging: Come in protective plastic packaging. Crafted by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, it was the final design for these coins before the cessation of gold coin production in 1933.

Experience the Intersection of Rarity and Historical Significance. Unfortunately, a significant number of US Eagle denomination gold coins were lost in the 1930s during the government's shift away from the gold standard, leading to the melting down of much of the circulating coin supply. Due to factors such as age, low mintages, and coin meltdowns, several of these coins have become rare collector's items. Coins in XF+, or Extremely Fine, condition exhibit only slight wear on the highest relief points, with traces of the original mint luster possibly present. The 1916-S release is regarded as the 10th rarest coin in the Indian Eagle design series.
