1868 Seated Dime, PR67 Cameo
Wonderful Color and Contrast

1868 10C PR67 Cameo PCGS. CAC. This Superb Gem proof Cameo Seated dime offers the best of both worlds to collectors, wonderful patina in shades of sunset-orange, fire-red, and steel-blue on the reverse, with the latter color occupying the center reverse against pale yellow and pink champagne rim toning on the reverse. The devices are quite well-frosted, sufficient to garner a Cameo designation. Mentionable marks are a nonissue here. The late Gene Gardner's finest example from this proof issue of 600 coins was a PR66 NGC piece. Only once before have we offered a PR67 Cameo PCGS example of this date, lot 3982 in our FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2013), which brought $18,800 -- and that coin lacked the CAC approval. Population: 2 in 67 Cameo, 0 finer. CAC: 1 in 67, 0 finer (7/16).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23CS, PCGS# 84761, Greysheet# 4245)
