Description

1859 Transitional Dime, Judd-233
Choice Proof

1859 10C Transitional, Judd-233, Pollock-280, High R.6, PR64 Cameo NGC. A mule of the obsolete obverse and the new "cereal wreath" reverse. The pairing omits UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Technically a pattern, but long collected as part of the Seated dime series, and listed as such in the Guide Book. The present fully struck specimen displays peripheral golden-brown, cherry-red, and cobalt-blue patina. Diagonal field striations are as made. NGC has certified just 14 pieces in all grades. Presumably, some of those represent duplicate submissions, since USPatterns.com notes, "fewer than two dozen are known."(Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23CH, PCGS# 4749, Greysheet# 4217)

Weight: 2.49 grams
