Description
1870 Ten Cents in Copper
Judd-873, PR65+ Brown
1870 10C Ten Cents, Judd-873, Pollock-970, High R.7, PR65+ Brown
PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. Struck from regular Seated dime dies,
but in copper with a reeded edge. This category of coin is
traditionally referred to as a dies trial piece, but in practice,
it is likely that a few 1870 denomination sets were assembled for
sale to well-connected dealers or collectors. About a half dozen
copper pieces are known. There are also two or three strikes in
aluminum and a single example in nickel. The fields on this piece
are remarkably bright and reflective, which brightens the already
light blue and reddish-golden color seen on each side. Population:
1 in 65 (1 in 65+) Brown, 1 finer. CAC: 1 in 65, 0 finer
(12/25).Ex: Bob R. Simpson Collection (Heritage, 8/2021), lot 3128; US Coins Signature (Heritage, 12/2021), lot 3277.
