Description
1869 Dime, Toned PR67
Rare at This Level
1869 10C PR67 NGC. Fortin-105. Rich peach-orange patina over
the central obverse cedes to translucent cobalt-blue at the margin.
The latter color palette dominates the reverse except for peach and
olive-green along the lower-right margin. The design elements are
sharply defined, and both sides have been well cared for.Variety: Fortin-105, attributed by the long flag on the 1 in the date and a strong die scratch in the upper section of the lower shield under the B of LIBERTY.
Population (7/14): This PR67 piece is among the five finest at NGC, along with two PR67 Cameo. The finest at PCGS is a PR67 Cameo.
Heritage Commentary: A number of the 600-piece mintage of 1869 proof dimes have survived to the present day. Examples can be obtained through near-Gem without too much difficulty, after which it becomes quite challenging.
Provenance: Summer FUN Signature (Heritage, 6/2008), lot 735. (Registry values: N2998)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23CT, PCGS# 4762, Greysheet# 4247)
