This 100 year old Gold $5 Indian is one of the most unique coins in U.S. history. Inspired by ancient coins from the period of Alexander the Great, Theodore Roosevelt commissioned the redesign of the $5 gold piece and the result is this spectacular $5 Indian. What makes it so unique is that the design is sunk into the surface rather than raised above the surface. This incuse design shows a bold Indian with a spectacular headdress and a triumphant eagle on the reverse. This coin in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, one grade higher, is being offered elsewhere for $825, making this gold Indian a GREAT Value!
