1915 $10 Gold Eagle

The 1915 Ten Dollar Gold Coin, also known as the Indian Head Gold $10 Eagle, is a significant piece of American numismatic history. Here are some key details about this coin:

  1. Design and Engraving: The coin was designed by Augustus Saint Gaudens, a prominent sculptor and artist in the early 20th century. The design features intricate details, reflecting the artistic style of the period​​​​​​.
  2. Mintage and Composition: The coin was minted at the Philadelphia Mint, as indicated by the lack of a mint mark. The total mintage was 351,000 for the regular 1915 version and 59,000 for the 1915-S variant. The 1915 proof version had a much lower mintage of only 75 coins. The coin's metal composition is 90% gold and 10% copper, which was standard for U.S. gold coins at the time. It weighs around 16.70 to 16.72 grams and has a diameter of approximately 27 mm. The edge of the coin is adorned with raised stars​​​​​​.
  3. Value and Rarity: The 1915 Ten Dollar Gold Coin's value varies depending on its condition and rarity. Regular versions from 1915 have been valued at around $1,139, while the 1915-S variant is slightly more valuable at around $1,238. The proof version from 1915 is particularly rare and highly valued by numismatists, with values reaching around $28,000. The rarity and value of these coins are elevated due to the limited number of proofs that remain in existence today​​.
  4. Historical Significance: The coin holds significant historical value, being one of the last series of the Indian Head gold coins. It represents a blend of American history, art, and coinage, and is sought after by collectors and historians alike​​.

The 1915 Ten Dollar Gold Coin is not just a piece of currency; it's a symbol of the rich history and artistry of early 20th-century America. Its value as a collectible item extends beyond its monetary worth, making it a prized possession for both numismatists and history enthusiasts.
