- This is the first year of issue of the Indian half eagle series and a date that is extremely popular with collectors, particularly at the Gem level. The color is splendid with classic orange-gold throughout, while the luster is satiny and intense. Fully struck as much as these come, the 1908 half eagles are always a trifle soft on the upper points of the design, the eagle's wing tip in particular near his neck. Note that partial feather definition is present, more than commonly seen in fact for this date. Surface quality is outstanding and merits particular attention as Gems are legitimately scarce and anything finer is rare. A highly desirable example of this initial Indian half eagle issue and a coin that will hallmark any advanced collection.
