Description
1863 Half Dime, PR65 Red and Brown
Copper Strike From Regular Dies, Judd-323
1863 H10C Seated Half Dime, Judd-323, Pollock-388, High R.7,
PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. Struck in copper with a reeded
edge. Only about a dozen examples of this type are known. The
design elements are the same as those seen on the regular issue
coins. According to the USPatterns.com website: "Although described
in the literature as 'regular dies trial pieces', these are
actually restrikes deliberately made in the early 1870s and sold as
part of complete off-metal sets with the silver coinage of this
year ... These half dime dies were made from a hub which had the
"D" in "United" broken and are believed to be backdated novodels."
A well struck, nicely mirrored, and unabraded Gem. The reverse
field and obverse margin are fire-red, although sea-green toning
embraces the obverse field.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 29F3, PCGS# 70480, Greysheet# 12602)
