Description

Toned 1859 Dime, PR66

1859 10C PR66 NGC. Only 800 pieces were produced in this year, but that was a higher number than any previous proof issue, as the U.S. Mint was beginning to cater to coin collectors. This is a lovely, deeply toned Premium Gem with a rich coating of electric-blue and rose-brown toning over the obverse, and a light steel-green cast on the reverse. Sharply struck and impressively preserved.
