1889 $1 Indian Head Gold MS-64 PCGS
In 1889, the Philadelphia Mint struck a limited run of just 28,950 gold dollars featuring the classic Indian Head design. This particular coin has survived the decades in an exceptional state of preservation, graded Mint State 64 (MS-65). Because it was minted in Philadelphia, it bears no mint mark, leaving the focus entirely on its detailed artistry. Struck in 90 percent pure gold with a metal content of 0.0484 troy ounces, this tiny treasure represents the final year of the Indian Head gold dollar series. The obverse features a stylized portrait wearing an ornate feathered headdress, while the reverse displays the denomination of 1 Dollar alongside the 1889 date, surrounded by a delicate wreath.
