Coin Highlights:
This 1910 Pre-33 $5 Indian Gold Half Eagle has an MS63 certification. The typical coin at this grade has distracting marks in the primary focal fields and may have a few scattered hairlines or one small patch of hairlines. For the age and strike, the coins maintain a rather attractive eye appeal. The 1910 Indian Gold Half Eagle is known to showcase well-struck details with a soft, frosted luster or even a satin luster common on 1910 coins. The gold color in the 1910 coins often varies from light to medium yellow gold, with some even showcasing an orange or greenish gold hue.
Bela Lyon Pratt’s design for the Half Eagle and Quarter Eagle was a notable departure in the US Eagle denomination’s history. Since the introduction of the Eagle, Half Eagle, and Quarter Eagle in 1794/1795, Lady Liberty had featured on the obverse of all three denominations. Pratt’s depiction of an indigenous chieftain was among the first used on American currency in the nation’s history.
The obverse of 1910 $5 Indian Half Eagle Coins features Pratt’s depiction of an indigenous chieftain. This figure is shown in left-profile relief and wears a feathered headdress. In addition to the notable change to celebrate indigenous American culture, Pratt’s design was also the first incuse-struck visual in the history of American coinage.
On the reverse of 1910 Pre-33 Indian Gold Half Eagles, you will find an American bald eagle. This design shows the eagle in left-profile relief as it sits perched on a sheaf of arrows with an olive branch wrapped around the sheaf.
