1909-S $10 Indian Gold Eagle AU
The 1909-S ten-dollar gold piece represents a fascinating era in United States coinage, combining a bold artistic direction with the rich legacy of the San Francisco Mint. Struck from 0.4838 troy ounces of gold, this coin is a prominent member of the Indian Eagle series, which departed from traditional American coinage designs of the era. The obverse of the coin features a distinctive profile wearing a ceremonial Native American war bonnet, a striking image that immediately captures the eye. The word LIBERTY is inscribed along the band of the headdress, while the year 1909 is clearly struck at the bottom of the design, anchoring the piece in its specific historical moment. This particular issue bears the S mintmark, indicating its origin from the Western minting facility in San Francisco.
