- This is the first year of issue for the Indian half eagle series and a date that is extremely popular with collectors, particularly at the Gem Uncirculated level. The color is splendid with classic golden-apricot throughout, while the luster is full and softly frosted. Sharply struck for the issue, although 1908 half eagles are always a trifle soft on the upper points of the design, in particular the eagle's wing tip near the neck. Note that here partial feather definition is present in this area. Surface quality is outstanding and merits particular attention as Gems are legitimately scarce, and anything finer than MS-65 is rare. A highly desirable example of this initial Indian half eagle issue, and a coin that will identify any advanced collection.
