Description
1886 Seated Dime, PR68 ★
Sole Finest Certified
1886 10C PR68 ★ NGC. The 1886 silver proof sets had an
easily remembered mintage figure that is the last three digits of
the date -- 886 pieces of each denomination. Breen makes the
interesting comment that "many also come with flat heads,
apparently from careless manufacture involving only one blow from
the press." This piece is, nonetheless, well if not fully struck
throughout both sides, including the head and the bowknot opposite
on the reverse. Lovely original peripheral patina in shades of
cobalt-blue and pink-gold reinforces the quality and excellent eye
appeal that garners the Star designation. Census: 1 in 68 ★
