- This is a superior specimen with exceptionally well preserved surfaces, intense satin mint luster, and amazing vivid rose-orange and powder blue colors. There are no hints of copper spotting or any detracting marks. A full strike and strong eye appeal combine to make this one of the finest 1908-S Indian eagles available in today's market.<p>The 1908-S Indian eagle has long been considered one of the rarities of this series. Most of the mintage went into commercial channels as this date and mint are commonly found with wear - others for reasons unclear are found in high Mint State grades. Another factor which reflects the whims of chance is the fact that a few dozen of these are actually in Gem condition or finer. Given the modest mintage of 59,850 pieces and the early date of issue for this series, this is indeed quite extraordinary. Why this is so shall likely remain undiscovered, but this premium Gem example is a coin that any collector will appreciate. If you are assembling an advanced collection of Indian eagles, or want a significant coin for your type set, here is the perfect candidate.
