The Certified US Gold $10 Indian 1907 No Motto MS62 PCGS coin holds a special place in American numismatic history as the inaugural year of the Indian Head eagle series. Struck in 1907 at the Philadelphia Mint, this coin represents a significant departure from previous designs, featuring a bold and iconic depiction of Liberty and an American eagle on the reverse.
Designed by renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the obverse of the coin showcases a proud and dignified portrayal of Liberty wearing a feathered headdress, symbolizing America's spirit of freedom and independence. This departure from traditional depictions of Liberty represented a bold artistic statement and reflected the nation's growing cultural identity at the turn of the 20th century.
The reverse of the coin features a striking image of a majestic American eagle perched on a bundle of arrows and an olive branch, surrounded by the inscription "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and the denomination "TEN DOLLARS." Notably, the 1907 issue does not include the motto "IN GOD WE TRUST," a feature that was added in later years following public outcry over its omission.
Each Certified US Gold $10 Indian 1907 No Motto MS62 PCGS coin comes encapsulated in a secure holder provided by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), ensuring both protection and authentication. This certification guarantees the coin's authenticity and assigns it a grade of Mint State 62 (MS62), indicating a coin that retains its original mint luster and detail with only slight imperfections.
Coins graded as MS62 are considered to be in excellent condition, with only minor abrasions or hairlines visible under magnification. While they may exhibit some signs of handling or light wear, MS62 coins generally retain their overall appeal and visual appeal, making them desirable additions to any numismatic collection.
The mintage of the 1907 No Motto Indian Head eagle was relatively small compared to later issues, adding to its collectible appeal. With a total production of 239,406 coins, including both the No Motto and Motto varieties, the 1907 issue represents a limited and historically significant series within the broader Indian Head eagle series.
As the first year of issue for the Indian Head eagle series, the 1907 No Motto coins hold a special significance for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Whether admired for their stunning design, historical importance, or potential investment value, these coins continue to captivate numismatists around the world.
