Description

1823/2 10C Large Es MS66 ★ NGC. JR-3, R.2. The obverse of this amazing and eye appealing Premium Gem is fully mirrored around frosty devices. The reverse is entirely lustrous with frosty silver surfaces. There is no evidence of toning on either side. The eagle's claws are weak, but all other details on both sides are sharply defined. A trace of subtle mint frost on either side of the portrait in the obverse field prevents us from describing this piece as a one-sided proof, following Breen's one-sided tradition. A sensational coin that is likely one of the finest existing 1823/2 dimes. Census: 3 in 66 Cameo, 0 finer (3/09).
