Description
1865-S Ten, 865 Over Inverted 186, AU53
Unabraded and Eye-Appealing
1865-S $10 865 Over Inverted 186 AU53 NGC. Large S. To the
novice this variety looks like 1865 over 981, but the latter digits
are in reality an inverted 186 date logotype that the engraver
first entered upside-down, then corrected. Both the Normal Date and
Inverted Date varieties are condition rarities, understandably
given the low mintage for both combined, 16,700 pieces. The Normal
Date is actually a tad rarer but the curiosity factor of the
blundered-date variety makes it popular, as does its separate
Guide Book listing. This apricot-orange piece is
surprisingly unabraded, but both moderate strike softness and light
high-point wear are confined largely to the central devices.
Excellent eye appeal. Census: 3 in 53, 5 finer (12/13).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 264G, PCGS# 8643, Greysheet# 9465)
