The Indian Gold Half Eagle was minted by the United States from 1908 to 1929 to serve as a circulation coin with a $5 USD legal tender value. Each $5 Indian Gold Half Eagle was struck by the US Mint using 90.0% gold and contained a total of .24187 troy ounces. All coins included in this listing have been carefully selected and certified by either the NGC or PCGS to be in MS65 condition.
Coin Highlights:
Unlike most other coins of the time, the Indian Half Eagle contained a unique incuse design. This means that the design is sunk into the coin, as opposed to being raised above its surface. This gives the coins a totally unique design and differentiates it from many others minted during this time. The design for the Indian Half Eagle was created by Bela Lyon Pratt and contains the same images featured on the $2.50 Indian Gold Quarter Eagle Coin.
On the coin’s obverse is the image of a left-facing Native American chieftain. In the design, he is featured wearing a traditional Native American headdress. Directly below the portrait is the abbreviation “BLP” in small letters to denote the artist with the minting year stamped directly underneath. The word “LIBERTY” is inscribed above with a series of 13 stars encircling it.
On the reverse of the coin is a large bald eagle perched upon a bundle of arrows with an olive branch in its right talon. To the left and right of the bird are the phrases “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and “IN GOD WE TRUST” respectively. Above the eagle is the name of our country which is spelled out as “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” while the legal tender value is stamped below as “FIVE DOLLARS.”
