Description

Magnificent 1835 Half Dime, MS68
Small Date, Small 5C, V-7, LM-10

1835 H10C Small Date, Small 5C MS68 NGC. V-7, LM-10, R.1. The low 3 in the date identifies this popular Logan-McCloskey marriage, one of only two known for the Small Date, Small 5C variety. Since the other Small Date, Small 5C die pairing is the very scarce LM-11, most Guide Book collectors end up with an example of LM-10.
This remarkable Superb Gem is crisply struck, with any incompleteness limited to the left shield border. Glimpses of golden-tan toning deny full brilliance. The fields are close to pristine, and the portrait is undisturbed. The NGC Census lists no examples of LM-10 above the MS67 level. The present piece must be regarded as among the finest-known for the date, however, regardless of die marriage.
