1849-O Small O Dime, MS64
Multicolor Toning, Smooth Surfaces

1849-O 10C Small O, F-104b, R.4, MS64 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Bender Collection. The 1849-O is prevalent in well circulated grades, but nice Uncirculated examples are rare. On his website SeatedDimeVarieties.com, Gerry Fortin states that the present coin "is most likely the finest known example of Variety 104b in a PCGS holder." Fortin-104b is a late die state of the repunched F-104 that no longer exhibits repunching. Die lapping has made the base of the date slightly faint, and thinned the reverse dentils near 4 o'clock. This is a splendid near-Gem with exquisite ocean-blue and ruby-red toning. Hints of straw-gold visit the reverse periphery. The preservation is outstanding, even by the requirements of the MS64 level.
Population: 3 in 64, 1 finer. CAC: 2 in 64, 0 finer (7/22).
