The Fairmont Collection originated from a historic 2010s recovery of Pre-33 US Gold Coins that had been stored in foreign vaults and brought back to the United States. Among the denominations found in the Fairmont Collection was the iconic Indian Half Eagle Coin, which is recognized as America’s first-ever coin design to feature an incuse motif. Today, 1912 $5 Indian Gold Half Eagle Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
In 1912, production of the Indian Half Eagle slowed dramatically. With just two mints striking the coins, the combined total issued in 1912 was just 1,182,000 coins. Philadelphia produced 790,000 coins, while San Francisco produced 392,000 coins.
All 1912 $5 Indian Gold Half Eagle Coin available here come in Mint State 64 condition. Coins with this grade exhibit average luster for the age, with a good strike. The coins may feature numerous small contact marks in groups and one or two heavier marks. It is also possible to find one or two small patches of hairlines.
The obverse design of the 1912 $5 Indian Half Eagle Coin features a bust of an indigenous figure. Created in 1908 by Bela Lyon Pratt, this left-profile bust depicts a Native American wearing a full feathered headdress. It was the first image of an indigenous figure to appear on American coinage.
The reverse design of the 1912 Indian Gold Half Eagle showcases the American bald eagle. Also created by Pratt in 1908, the eagle is shown in left-profile relief, with its wings at its sides. The eagle is perched on a sheaf of arrows wrapped in an olive branch, symbolizing the combination of war and peace.
