Description
1853/2 Ten Dollar, MS61
Rare in Mint State
1853/2 $10 MS61 NGC. FS-301. This Cherrypickers'
variety, recognized by both NGC and PCGS, exhibits what appears to
be the remnants of a 2 within the lower loop of the 3 in the date.
This variety is scarce in all grades, but becomes a major condition
rarity in Mint State. NGC lists only five Uncirculated examples,
including three in this grade and one MS62 finer; the Mint State
population at PCGS consists of a coin each in MS60 and MS61. Two of
the NGC MS61 coins were recovered from the S.S. Republic.
This piece is well-struck and displays satiny yellow-gold luster.
Scattered abrasions limit the grade, but none are individually
noteworthy.(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# C82G, PCGS# 8611, Greysheet# 9443)
Weight: 16.72 grams
