Offered here is a 1910-D $5 Indian Head Gold Half Eagle, certified by ANACS as VF35 Details – Cleaned, certification number 8089321.
Struck at the Denver Mint, the 1910-D had an original mintage of 193,600 pieces, substantially lower than many other issues in the Indian Head Half Eagle series.
Designed by noted sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt, the Indian Head Half Eagle features an innovative incuse design, with the primary design elements and inscriptions recessed below the surface. The obverse depicts a Native American wearing a feathered headdress, while the reverse features a standing eagle perched upon arrows accompanied by an olive branch. The D mintmark appears on the reverse.
ANACS has assigned this example VF35 Details, with Cleaned specifically noted on the holder. It is therefore a Details-certified example rather than a straight-graded VF35.
Coin Details:
With only 193,600 pieces originally struck, the 1910-D is a lower-mintage Denver issue within the Indian Head Half Eagle series. This certified example offers an opportunity to acquire the date at a more accessible level despite the noted cleaning.
