CAC. This Philadelphia ten is a favorite type coin among Indian eagles: last of the pre-war Philadelphia issues, with no further $10 gold from that mint until 1926. A mintage of 351,000 pieces left a substantial Mint State supply—Q. David Bowers, in his 2017 Guide Book of Gold Eagle Coins, estimated 8,000 or more Uncirculated survivors and noted that imports from the 1970s onward greatly increased availability through MS-64. Above that level the date thins quickly. PCGS currently reports 95 coins in MS-65 with 29 finer, while CAC has approved only about 30 examples at this grade and eight higher among a modest overall sticker total for the issue.

The present Gem is fully struck from rim to center, with Liberty’s headdress feathers, the surrounding stars, and the eagle’s plumage all razor-sharp. Surfaces are uncommonly smooth and finely textured, softly frosted rather than granular, and bathed in warm golden-apricot to rich orange-gold color that rolls under gleaming mint frost. Eye appeal exceeds the assigned grade: the fields are free of the usual chatter that keeps most 1915 eagles in the Choice range, and the coin presents as a premium, original example rather than a technically qualified Gem.

For the collector who wants a single high-end representative of Saint-Gaudens’ Indian design—or a date that is “elusive higher,” as Bowers put it—this CAC-approved MS-65 is an especially satisfying choice. It combines the date’s characteristic sharpness and frosty texture with color and cleanliness seldom seen even among certified Gems, making it a natural fit for a superior type set or an advanced Indian eagle cabinet.
