Set of Nine Indian Head Half Eagles. Set of Nine Indian Head Half Eagles.
Lot Title: Set of Nine Indian Head Half Eagles.
Description: This partial set of Indian Head half eagles is just slightly more than one third complete. These corresponding dates, which range in grade from XF-40 to AU-58, are assigned the following approximate condition levels: 1908, 1909, 1910, and 1912-S are XF-40; 1911 XF-45; 1913 and 1914-D are AU-50; 1915 AU-58; and 1916-S XF-48. For a prudent bid, it is recommended that these issues be personally inspected.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $2,200.00
High Estimate: $2,400.00

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
1169The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$825.00
1908 ICG MS-64.
Deep, dusky golden hue drapes the entire coin with a thick layer of patina, which may help minimize the effects of the usual tiny abrasions. Some highpoint greyish discoloration doesn't seem to have...
914The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$675.00
1908 PCGS MS-62.
Finely detailed, especially in the war bonnet but also at the usual trouble spot at the eagle's shoulder. Despite very nice luster, the matte surface texture yields to slightly glossy areas on the...
1120The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$875.00
1908 PCGS MS-62.
Strictly original with an average strike and flecks of die grease. The usual planchet abrasions are probably a little less offensive than usual, which resonates well with the assigned MS-62 grade.
1121The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,400.00
1908 NGC MS-63.
Sizzling cartwheel luster enlivens the fields undoubtedly makes the single largest contribution to overall eye-appeal, since sharpness is only average for the grade. Neither side has any major...
1084The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$775.00
1908 PCGS MS-62.
Dirty, grungy, dark and grimy crud sticks to the surface of this 1908 Indian half-eagle -- and that is precisely what makes it such a mesmerizing piece. It is most unusual that PCGS would deign to...
1178The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$3,300.00
1908 NGC MS-64.
Tremendously original, featuring a substantial layer of greenish-gold patina and splashes of charcoal-steel on the highpoints. All Indian half-eagles are scarce at the MS-64 level, and finding one...
1179The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$3,100.00
1908 PCGS MS-64.
Vastly superior in appearance and technical consideration than the typical abraded Indian half-eagle, this inaugural 1908 will serve admirably for type purposes. The entire surface displays very fine...
1026The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$4,000.00
1908 NGC MS-64.
Lovely cartwheel mint luster is unusually prominent for this incused gold coin. The details are favorably impressed on both sides, and the observer is hard pressed to find any significant flaws. There...
1055The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$975.00
1908 NGC MS-62.
Marvelous coral coloration imbues this half eagle with considerable appeal for those collectors who enjoy collecting original coins. Although hints of striking weakness are noted, the grade appears...
1056The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$2,750.00
1908 NGC MS-63.
This prominently struck issue is from the initial year of this popular series. Its surfaces are mattelike, and they glow with a rich, lustrous aspect. A meager number of contact ticks are observed...
1057The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$3,620.00
1908 PCGS MS-64 OGH.
Obviously an exceptional coin (as becomes the grade), only a bit of a better strike could be asked of this lovely, original piece. The Indian’s cheek, and the Eagle’s shoulder, are a trifle softer...
1071The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$575.00
1908 AU-50+ and 1909-D AU-55.
This exuberant pair of half eagles harmonizes overall aesthetically with regard to both surface quality and detail sharpness. The 1908 specimen is a glistening yellow-gold, whereas the 1909-D has a...
1072The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$900.00
1908 NGC MS-62.
From the inaugural year for this popular series, and an example that glows with a wonderful golden aspect. Some widely strewn surface marks are perceived on this robustly struck specimen.
1073The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$3,600.00
1908 PCGS MS-64.
An exemplary first year of issue specimen that glows with a superb yellow-gold splendor from its highly lustrous surfaces. Only a few microscopic ticks are perceived on the Indian's profile with the...
994The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$1,475.00
1908 MS-60.
Yellow-orange color, dripping luster, a strong strike, minimal marks, and pleasing toning are all the good things that make this coin great. I would list the bad thing, but I really couldn't find...
386The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$950.00
1908 NGC MS-62.
From the initial date for this popular series, and an example with satinlike surfaces displaying an orange-gold aspect. A nominal array of ticks, and a meager number of faint hairlines, are noted on...
387The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$850.00
1908 PCGS MS-62.
This specimen's satinlike aspect is imbued with a rich orange-gold. The few strewn contact ticks are congruent for this grade level. Its robust design elements contribute to its desirability.
482The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$1,350.00
1908 NGC MS-62.
A resplendent specimen from the first year of this Half Eagle design. Lovely orange-gold hues with splashes of blue radiate from its highly lustrous surfaces. Some random marks are observed on this...
1122The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$220.00
1908 AU-50.
A nice gold coin with attractive antiquing inside the devices.
1123The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$1,450.00
1908 PCGS MS-62.
This well-defined first-year-of-issue has delicate surfaces that are satiny and emit an abundant orange hue. Both the strike and the observed ticks are congruous for this assigned grade level.
1124The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$2,600.00
1908 PCGS MS-63.
Fabulous eye appeal on this golden blazer. Nice detail and with warm, circular luster.
