Description
1865-S Seated Dime, MS64
Finest at NGC
1865-S 10C MS64 NGC. Extensive circulation, exportation, and
melting explain the incredible rarity of this issue in Uncirculated
condition, given as High R.7. Only eight examples survive in Mint
State from a mintage of 175,000 coins. Such pieces are highly
prized and rarely appear at auction.The issue is notorious for strike softness on Liberty's head and the lower wreath, evident even on this Choice example. Apart from the typical incompleteness, the remaining design features, including the upper wreath, are well-detailed. Mottled crimson, olive, and golden-tan hues intermingle with areas of brilliance. The coin is lightly abraded for the grade with no singularly distracting marks. Given the extreme Mint State rarity, we expect Seated dime specialists to quickly seize this opportunity. Census: 1 in 64, 0 finer (11/16).(Registry values: N4719)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 239R, PCGS# 4642, Greysheet# 4114)
