PCGS MS-61 $5 Indian Half Eagle Gold Coin - Random Year
The US Mint introduced the Indian Half Eagles in 1908 to be the $5 circulating coins in the US, issued through Denver, New Orleans, Philadelphia, and San Francisco branches until 1929.
The $5 Indian Half Eagle coin weighs .2419 oz of gold bullion and features Augustus Saint-Guaden’s design.
The higher prices of gold in the 1930s resulted in a massive hoarding and meltdown movement of gold coins. Several $5 Indian Half Eagles and other Pre-1933 Gold Coins disappeared in the meantime, seriously affecting their availability in the bullion market.
Today, SD Bullion offers $5 Indian Half Eagle Gold coins of varied years, sealed and certified by PCGS as MS-61 coins.

A PCGS MS-61 Coin
Like other third-party services, PCGS - Professional Coin Grading Service appraises coins, apart from sovereign mint, using the Sheldon Grading Scale to grade them from 1 to 70, based on their condition.
An MS-Mint State coin has the same format as a business coin. Grade 61 indicates that the coin’s mint luster may be diminished, with clusters of minor contact marks and noticeable hairlines.
