Impressive Premium Gem Proof 1859 Half Dime

1859 H10C PR66 NGC. Difficult to attribute because of abrasions directly over the bases of 8 and 5 in the date, but definitely repunched along the base of 1. An impressively preserved Premium Gem, from a proof mintage of just 800 coins. A deep layer of dappled red, green, and gold patina covers the obverse, but the fields retain dazzling reflectivity. Housed in an early-generation NGC holder. Census: 16 in 66, 8 finer (6/08). (Registry values: P4)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 235P, PCGS# 4438, Greysheet# 3908)

Weight: 1.24 grams

Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
