详细说明

1914-D Indian Half Eagle. MS-65 (NGC). Lustrous deep honey-gold patina with fiery rose and orange iridescence. Bold unbroken cartwheels adorn the satiny surfaces. Near the top of the NGC Census, and deservedly so. Indian half eagles as a class are rare in MS-65, and the 1914-D is no exception to that rule of thumb. Indeed, just one example of the date has been graded finer than the present piece by NGC, a notable tribute to the quality of the coin offered here.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> <strong>Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers</strong><br /> Assembling a complete collection of 1908-1929 Indian half eagles is a possibility, but there are challenges for many of the issues, as here with the 1914-D. The present piece combines high grade, excellent eye appeal, and an elusive quality. Consider the possibilities and bid accordingly.
