Additional Description: Minted at the Denver Mint in 1909, this Indian Head five-dollar gold coin features Bela Lyon Pratt’s distinctive incuse design, with a Native American head wearing a headdress on the obverse and a bold eagle on the reverse. Believed to grade between Fine and Very Fine, the coin shows gentle circulation wear while preserving clear detail in both the portrait and the eagle. Coins from the Denver Mint during this period are admired for their sharp strikes and warm, even toning.
