1911 INDIAN $10 PCGS PR66

This 1911 Indian Head eagle is a Matte Proof certified PCGS PR66, representing one of the distinctive experimental finishes used on early twentieth-century Proof gold. The supplied note records a mintage of only 95 pieces, reflecting the very limited collector demand for Proof gold at the time. Augustus Saint-Gaudens' Indian Head eagle design is especially admired for its incuse-style devices, star-studded edge, and sculptural presence. Matte Proof surfaces require different evaluation than mirrored Proofs, with texture, completeness, and surface preservation carrying particular weight. In PR66, this example has strong appeal for specialists in Renaissance-era gold.
