$10 Indian Head Gold Coin | Cull

The $10 Indian Head Gold Eagle stands apart from most U.S. gold coinage of its era. Where contemporaries relied on relief portraiture against flat fields, this design — produced from 1907 through 1933 — sank the imagery directly into the coin’s surface using an incuse technique. The result is a distinctly sculptural look that collectors and historians have long regarded as one of the more unconventional designs in American numismatics. Cull like this 1910-dated coin carry the full gold content of the series at a reduced premium over spot.

Key Features:

• Purity: .900 fine gold
• Weight: 0.4838 troy oz actual gold weight (16.718 grams gross)
• Metal: Gold
• Obverse design: Left-facing Native American portrait in a full feathered headdress, dated 1910, with thirteen stars arcing around the rim
• Reverse design: A perched eagle standing on a branch with a small olive sprig, inscribed “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “TEN DOLLARS”

The obverse features a left-facing portrait of a Native American figure wearing a large, detailed feathered headdress. Individual feathers are layered and fanned outward from a banded headpiece, with the design recessed into the coin’s field rather than raised above it. Thirteen stars arc around the upper rim, and the date 1910 sits just below the portrait along the lower edge. Wear and surface marks consistent with cull grading are visible across the fields, though the main design elements remain identifiable.

The reverse presents an eagle perched on a bundle of arrows and an olive branch, its body facing left with head turned to face forward. Wing and tail feather detail is still legible despite the coin’s circulated condition. IN GOD WE TRUST appears to the left of the eagle, E PLURIBUS UNUM arcs behind the bird’s head, and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA curves along the upper field. TEN DOLLARS is boldly stamped along the lower rim. Contact marks and wear are evident throughout, consistent with a coin graded as cull.
