Lot 4750
1911-S $10 Indian. PCGS graded MS-64. Well struck with a hint of light orange toning. For years, the 1911-S Indian ten was believed to be a major rarity. That all changed in 1979 when Marc Emory, a coin dealer, purchased 50 examples from a European source. Most of these choice quality pieces were Mint State, with the kind of luster and smooth patina that is found here. The coin exhibits lovely color as described, with satisfying levels of smooth mint frost on both sides. There are no undesirable marks. A splendid example for the collector of this series. Only 51,000 struck. Pop 28; 28 finer, 20 in 65, 8 in 66 (PCGS # 8870) .
Estimated Value $7,500 - 8,000.
