In hand a very attractive piece with nice color. Hoping the photos can convey it on your computer screen. Fire away good or bad.

1926 MS64 CAC graded by NGC.

    Love it! Looks close to or at 65 level. If you posted as a GTG, I would have said 65. Of course, we cannot see what is going on with the cheek and chin. Still, that is a clean coin with terrific color!

    64 is right on, I couldn’t see this in a 65 holder and it’s not a 63. Rev is particularly nice

    It looks like a very nice example with pleasing color. There are too many small marks on the face to consider going for a upgrade. For an MS-64, this is about as good as it gets.

    Here’s my 64cac. I like my obverse better but your reverse is cleaner, I think yours is a strong 64.

    A very upper-end 64.

    Very nice 64. I like the color. 1926 is underrated. Although a common date, less than 1/3rd as many 1926 CAC'd in 64 vs 1932. In 65 these get tough.

    Like it.. would be satisfied with a 64. Wouldn't suspect it would end up a 65 but who knows?? Never can be sure with pictures but I think it is better than 63.

    I think NGC, CAC, and everyone here got it right.
    It's a beauty!

    Very nice example!!

    A lot of $10 Indians have surface abrasions. Yours looks rather clean and smooth!

    MS 64+!!

    Thank you for the comments. To many little ticks on the obverse for a gem grade. I am very pleased with the originality and color. The reverse I might say is stunning!

    The reverse is truly stunning! You are a very lucky owner of a beautiful Indian.

    Nice luster, nice color, maybe a few too many micro luster breaks and minor scruffies to go Gem, but a nice 64 from what I can see.

    Some of my friends and I have a saying when we see something the other has that we like, as way of a compliment,

    "How much?"

    It's nicer than a lot of 65s out there from those pics. I'd feel great buying that in a 64 holder the nick by the eye probably keeps it at a 64+ for me but really no other complaints great coin.

    @ironmanl63 ... A very nice gold Eagle... deserving of the grade. Will not make a 65, but that reverse is really good. Cheers, RickO
