1854 Arrows Dime, Sharply Struck MS66
A Popular Type Coin

1854 10C Arrows MS66 PCGS. CAC. Fortin-107. Light silver-gray patina resides on the radiantly lustrous surfaces of this gorgeous Premium Gem. The design elements are sharply struck, and both sides are impeccably preserved. These attributes combine to yield highly pleasing eye appeal.

Variety: Fortin-107, R.3. The most noticeable diagnostic point is a strong die crack from star 8 proceeding left through Liberty's head and out to the rim about star 7. Multiple peripheral obverse die cracks occur in later states.

Population Data (3/15): PCGS reports 12 pieces in MS66 and none finer. NGC shows 12 in MS66 and 10 finer.

Heritage Commentary: The 1854 Arrows issue is a relatively common date and highly popular among type collectors.

Consignor Commentary: The coin is well-struck with all stars showing full centrils. Light toning and full luster provide good eye appeal.
