Rank 1 is the lowest business-strike mintage in the series. Mintage is a poor guide to availability in this series. Eagles were held as reserves rather than spent, Executive Order 6102 recalled gold coin in 1933, and the Treasury melted most of what it held. The 1920-S and the issues of the early 1930s were hit hardest because they had barely circulated. Read the mintage as what was made, never as what exists.
Reading the figure
It is the largest of the 6 Denver issues in the series. Of the 3,486,140 struck across all mints in 1910, this issue accounts for 68%. That is 7.4 times the Philadelphia figure for the same year. The 1910 split ran Denver 2,356,640, San Francisco 811,000 and Philadelphia 318,500. The series median is 239,406, so this issue is more than twice as numerous as a typical date. Series-wide output rose sharply that year: 3,486,140 against 598,679 in 1909.

Scarcity tier
Semi-key
Assigned from reported mintage alone: under 750,000 is a key date, under 2,500,000 is a semi-key.
This is a reproducible label derived from the mintage column, not a market valuation and not a Coin Curator price opinion. The same thresholds apply to every series on this site. Several dates are far harder or far easier to obtain than their mintage implies; where that is true, it is stated above.
One widely printed figure in this series is not a mintage. Both published mintage tables consulted for this series print 50 for the 1907 Rolled Edge. Read the full note on the series page.
What to check before buying
Nothing about this date calls for a check beyond the ones that apply to any certified coin.
And for any certified coin
Verify the certification number on the grading service’s own lookup rather than from a photograph of the label, match the listing images to the certification record including grade and any variety attribution, look for cleaning, compare the mintmark against published photographs of the genuine issue, and read the return policy before buying. The grading guide covers each of these in full.
Coin Curator does not grade, authenticate, or appraise coins, and publishes no price or population data. These are verification steps, not a valuation.
Verify a certification number
Look a 1910-Dcertification number up on the service’s own site. A photograph of a label proves nothing.
Each service publishes its own guarantee with conditions and exclusions. Compare PCGS, NGC and ANACS.

Mintage figures are U.S. Mint production records, cross-checked against the published tables below on 2026-08-02. Where those tables disagree, the disagreement is disclosed on the affected page rather than resolved silently.
- Wikipedia, "Indian Head eagle" — Mintage table reporting business strikes separately from proofs. Used for the business-strike figures here. Its 1907 table omits the Wire Rim and prints a survival estimate for the Rolled Edge.
- USA Coin Book, Indian Head eagle — Independent table listing the 1907 varieties. Its Philadelphia figures add that year's proofs into the business-strike total.
- CoinWeek, 1907 Indian Head eagle No Motto With Periods — Consulted for the 1907 varieties, and the source establishing that the figures the tables print for them are survival counts rather than production records.
