1911 $5 Indian Gold Half Eagle MS-62 NGC
The 1911 five dollar gold piece, also known as the Half Eagle, represents a remarkable era in United States coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a mintage of 915,000, this specific coin bears no mint mark. It stands out in numismatic history due to its distinctive incuse design, where the details are sunken into the flat surface of the coin rather than raised above it. This specimen has been graded Mint State 62 (MS-62), preserving its original luster and the sharp details of the Indian Head motif. Composed of 90 percent gold, the coin contains 0.2419 troy ounces of precious metal. The obverse and reverse feature classic American inscriptions, including the national mottos "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
