Historical Significance
The Indian Head Half Eagle, designed by Bela Lyon Pratt, marked a departure from previous U.S. coin designs. Its incuse design (where the design is pressed into the coin rather than raised) was innovative for its time. The 1908-D issue, struck at the Denver Mint, holds a special place in numismatic circles due to its relative scarcity and historical context within the early 20th-century gold coinage.
