Description
- The Indian Head Gold Half Eagle was only struck from 1908 to 1916 and once again in 1929
- This stunning gold coin displays the first and only incuse design struck in US history

- This set includes the 1908-P, 1909-D, and 1911-P examples
- Each graded in stunning Mint State 62 condition
- Absolute Rarity: 1908-P Indian Head features a minuscule mintage of only 577,845 coins
- Absolute Rarity: 1911-P issue has a minuscule mintage of only 915,000 coins
- Absolute Rarity describes a coin with a low mintage where any grade is difficult to find
- Condition Rarity: Each coin in this set has an MS62 population under 2% of their respective mintage
