Description

Unsurpassed 1849-O Large O Seated Dime, MS64

1849-O 10C MS64 NGC. Large O. Rather deep, steel-gray toning blankets each side of this unusually well defined specimen. Unlike most 1849-O dimes, the head, stars, and wreath are quite sharp, and the surfaces are void of evidence of commonly seen die rust. A reverse die crack runs from a leaf triplet through M in AMERICA and to the rim at 2 o'clock. Stars 11 through 13 show evidence of recutting. This is an extremely scarce date in any grade of Mint State (where Gerry Fortin rates both Large and Small O varieties R.7), and unsurpassed in MS64. Census: 6 in 64, 0 finer at either service (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 238H, PCGS# 4592, Greysheet# 4095)
