1908-D No Motto. PCGS MS-64. 1908-D No Motto. PCGS MS-64.
Lot Title: 1908-D No Motto. PCGS MS-64.
Description: Perhaps a handful of Indian eagles are more valuable than the 1908-D "no motto" in a grade of MS-64. PCGS reports 36 at this grade level, with a paltry 7 pieces graded higher -- and those coins would cost at least twice as much! Virtually everything one might expect of the vaunted GEM grade becomes available with acquisition of this beauty, including opulent, velvety luster, impeccable color, and a "classic 1908" strike. Liberty's cheek is even smoother and less blemished than that seen on most gems. All that bars upgrade is a single, intermittent curving scratch that extends right from Liberty's neck, and it is hardly distracting without a loupe. (PCGS# 008854)

1908-D No Motto AU, cleaned.

1908-D 'no motto' Indian eagle, NGC MS-62
Generally unabraded, with nice, wide rims on the reverse. The grade seems to be accounted for almost entirely by mild slidemark friction across the Indian maiden's cheek.
