$10 Indian Head

The highly prized $10 Indian gold coins were authorized in 1907 by President Roosevelt. He commissioned Augustus Saint-Gaudens, one of America’s greatest sculptors, to set a new high standard in the art of coinage. For the $10 series Saint-Gaudens created an extremely beautiful design, the head of Liberty crowned by an American Indian war bonnet. On the obverse side, each $10 Indian gold coin features a majestic Guardian eagle with the words “E Pluribus Unum” on the reverse. The edge of each gold piece has 46 raised stars. Two more stars were added after 1912 when New Mexico and Arizona joined the Union.
