1859 10C Transitional PR65 NGC. Under the directorship of James Ross Snowden the Mint was able to greatly expand The Mint Collection of rare coins (now in the Smithsonian). However, in order to obtain these rarities Snowden produced a number of unusual pieces, sometimes known as "trade bait." The transitional 1859 dimes and 1860 half dimes are such coins. The dimes were produced at a time when new hubs were being prepared for the Legend Obverse design that started in 1860. He married an old With Stars obverse with the new "Cereal Wreath" reverse. An oddity for certain, these coins make no mention of the United States, and have from time to time been called "The Coin Without a Country." These coins have traditionally been listed in pattern references; this issue is listed as a Judd-233. Allegedly only 12 pieces were struck, all proofs. This example is absolutely white on each side. The fields are deeply reflective with heavy die striations on each side, and there is a noticeable amount of mint frost over the devices. Undoubtedly, one of the finest examples known of this curious issue. (PCGS# 4749)

1859 10C Transitional PR63 PCGS. In 1860, the Mint adopted James Longacre's new cereal wreath reverse for the Seated Dime. Sometime this year, the Coiner's Department at the Philadelphia mint combined one of the new reverse dies with an 1859-dated obverse to produce perhaps a dozen proofs (per Breen 1988, although current NGC and PCGS population data suggests a higher original mintage). These pieces do not display the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA on either side. Mint Director Snowden probably distributed these coins to collectors in exchange for pieces with which he could enhance the U.S. Mint Collection. In addition to their rarity, survivors are widely pursued for their novelty.

Well struck and razor sharp, the fields are deeply reflective showing a few scattered hairlines that limit the grade. Bright and completely untoned with superb, highly reflective luster. Few survivors could compare to this example of this important rarity in the Dime series. Population: 3 in 63, 11 finer (12/05). (PCGS# 4749)
