Struck during an era of American prosperity just before the outbreak of World War I, this 1914-D $10 Indian Head Eagle, graded MS65 by NGC, captures the spirit of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ design at its finest. Produced at the Denver Mint with a mintage of 343,500, this dazzling coin is among the few that survived the Great Depression's 1933 gold recall, likely preserved in European bank vaults and only later re-entered into numismatic circles.

Today, examples in MS-65 or better are exceptionally scarce, with only 66 graded MS-65 and just 26 finer according to NGC’s census. Most surviving examples are found in lower Mint State or circulated grades, making this Gem Mint State coin a top-condition standout. Its surfaces are vibrant and frosty, with razor-sharp details, minimal marks, and exceptional luster that speaks to its careful preservation and superior quality.

This coin hails from the Luxembourg Collection, a curated selection of high-grade U.S. gold admired for both quality and provenance. This piece presents a compelling opportunity for collectors to secure a key-date Denver Mint issue in truly elite condition—a shining jewel of the early 20th-century American gold series.
