THE KING OF THE $5 INDIAN SERIES. JUST TWO COINS GRADED HIGHER. The 1909-O is the first New Orleans Mint Half Eagle delivered since 1894, and it is the final gold coin struck in this Southern coinage facility. Additionally, it is the only 20th century gold issue of any denomination to bear the distinct O mintmark, and it is the only New Orleans Mint delivery in the Indian Half Eagle series. Finally, the '09-O is the premier absolute rarity of its type with an original mintage of a mere 34,200 pieces. Even in basal Mint State grades, the 1909-O can be extremely challenging to locate, and the handful of Gems extant are among the rarest gold coins ever produced by the United States Mint.
