1930-S $10 Indian PCGS MS65. PCGS graded MS-65+ PQ. CAC Approved. Only 96,000 minted of which merely 237 examples are estimated to have survived according to CoinFacts. Full mint bloom and should be regraded as the surfaces are simply amazing in quality, with incredble mint freshness and bloom. It would be difficult to imagine a more attractive example of this scarce issue. So many 1926 Indian eagles were struck in that there were enough $10 eagles on hand to supply the needs of banks until 1930. By then the roaring economy was starting to turn down, and demand for new coins was tepid. Hence the mintage of the 1930-S issue was limited.

Given so few of these were initially produced it is remarkable how many choice and finer examples exist. Those that die enter circulation in the early 1930s were quite limited, the majority that do survive are in mint condition, with only a few pieces showing even light circulation wear. Gems are reasonably available for a price, such as this example, but can be had with patience. A few finer examples exist than this offering, but precious few. If you have been looking for a really special coin, one that has been off the market for decades, then your search is over! Pop 3; 6 finer, 5 in 66, 1 in 67 (PCGS # 8883) Estimated Value $70,000-UP

Ex. US Gold from a prominent midwestern family collection.
