Lot 1387
1908. PCGS graded MS-64. CAC. Premium Quality. Mostly untoned. We think its condition is close to MS-65. A solid example of this first year of issue for the artist Bela Lyon Pratt's delightful incuse Indian head design for the quarter and half eagle. While some found this design too avant guard, soon the majority saw the benefit of the incuse devices and elegant design work, and these remain quite popular today with their resoundingly modernist designs incorporating the Native American theme that was peppered through our coinage and banknotes for generations. Impressive quality and visually appealing (PCGS # 7939) Estimated Value $1,650 - 1,700
