Pretty close to just a gold blank.

That'd be fun to just carry around

I’m sure that someone did do that. No way did that coin naturally wear down like that from circulation in only 26+ years.
Yup. That was probably someone's pocket piece for many years. I don't know of any way to wear down a coin to a Poor or Fair grade artificially with it still looking like natural wear like this one has. It's always interesting to see what a coin looks like in a near terminal state of wear.

@pocketpiececommems, great looking pocket piece. I concur that after many years of being carried in a pocket, only the main devices remain distinguishable. My Father carried this Morgan silver dollar for 40 years, and after his passing in1979, I have carried it daily.
That's cool
Very original looking wear! Thanks for sharing.
Well done! Quite an achievement. I carried a $10 gold Indian around in my pocket for a year with nary a scratch or visible wear. This eaglet, on the other hand, would take a private toll:
That is really cool looking in that condition!

How much actual metal content is lost with poor 1 examples? Did anyone ever notice metal dust with well worn coins?
I would not wear down a classic gold coin even to attain a F2 or P1 grade, just me, to each their own.
If it were really harshly cleaned or had extremely ugly surfaces, you could improve it's appearance with wear.
It may be warn but it’s still gold 👍
I like it! Congrats on getting the grade!
There isn’t a lowball year set for $10 Indians in the lowball registry so I have mine in the regular set part. I’m in 59th without the PO01 entered I have 10 of the 15. This has been another fun set to work on.

Very nice addition to your collection! Congratulations!
A Great Piece 👍👍👍
Not having a motto would have helped had it not been. Good thing they weren't made at branch mints, though. Cool piece!

Actually, the No Motto Indian gold $10 was made at the Denver Mint in 1908.

Nothing wrong with that PO-01! Now for the green bean?
Edited to add: hopefully not a gold sticker 😂

I was (unclearly) referring to 1907. Good thing that date wasn't made at branch mints.
