I love it and I love the color, which was something I fully expected when I noticed who started the thread!

What in the world is not to like. Wow. Beautiful Indian.

Thank you Buddy. I thought this was interesting, lifted from Coinfacts: David Akers (1975/88): This is undoubtedly one of the more underrated issues of this series. Only the 1911-D, 1914 and 1914-D are more rare, and true gems of the 1912, although they do exist, can only be located with great difficulty.
Really nice example.

I had a really nice 1912 MS64 but it did not pass CAC standards. Yours is much nicer. This one has moved on to a new owner as I have switched gears and collect $10 Indians now. Eyes are not what they used to be. I know just how hard those are to find so great pickup.

Nice surfaces on that coin. Interesting how rare these coins are in grades from MS65 up. Out of a mintage of 616,000, PCGS shows a total of 100 coins graded from MS65 up, and maxing out at 66+.
It’s really nice! A great pickup that will fit in very nicely with your collection for sure!
Gold is rather scarce with color too, let alone attractive color. I think it would be hard to find a more attractive piece for the grade.

Gorgeous coin @Eldorado9 !
Beautiful hunk of coin flesh.
Super nice.
Super Super nice with the glow rarely seen lately 🥰 Congrats!
Lately I've been loving both the Liberty and Indian gold $2.5. They are just such little beautiful pieces of artwork. I'll never collect even a small fraction of them, but having fun in the meantime dabbling.
Great pickup, and a wonderful addition to your phenomenal collection!
And a CAC to boot! CAC on gold is tough to get!
Enjoy!

Really nice coin congrats. $2.5/$5 indians that are bright and clean with nice mottled color are hard to come by.

@Eldorado9... Really very nice gold coin. You had me at gold, but that one also has great detail. Cheers, RickO
