1913 Indian Gold Half Eagle ($5)
PCGS
MS63
CAC
The 1913 Indian Head Half Eagle is a significant entry from the early 20th century. Featuring Bela Lyon Pratt's distinctive incuse design, these gold $5 coins were minted in relatively low numbers, contributing to their desirability. The Philadelphia Mint produced 424,000 of these coins in 1913, which is modest by comparison to other mintages within the series.
This coin is graded MS63 by PCGS and bears the coveted CAC sticker, signifying exceptional quality - particularly with gold coins, where CAC is the strictest. The surfaces exhibit a warm, golden luster with minimal contact marks, typical of the grade. The detailing is sharp, and the coin’s incuse design remains bold and impressive. With its strong eye appeal and certified grade, this piece stands out as an excellent addition to any collection of classic U.S. gold coinage.
