A Set of Indian Head $2½ Gold Coins. NGC graded all MS-62. Missing the 1911-D. A total of 14 coins. When Bela Lyon Pratt's new Indian head motif was launched in 1908, the public was surprised. Never before in American numismatics had a coin designer broken with tradition in such an innovative way as did Pratt. For what Pratt did was to recess the design below the surface of the coin! Forget the fact that his Half Eagles and Quarter Eagles were far more aesthetically challenging than the long-running and tired-appearing Liberty heads they replaced. Unlike his predecessors, Pratt honors a real American Indian for a change, not some made-up Greek goddess wearing an incongruous stylized feather head ornament. And because of this, his design helped to propel American coin design into a new era.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.
