Pleasing 1855 Arrows Half Dime, PR66

1855 H10C Arrows PR66 PCGS. CAC. No official mintage exists for the 1855 Arrows proof half dime. In this regard, Al Blythe (1992) says that proofs are "unverified." Walter Breen, on the other hand, in his 1989 proof coin Encyclopedia, lists 10 to 12 collections that possessed this issue. David Akers (1997), estimates 50 to 60 1855 Arrows half dimes were struck for inclusion in 1855 proof sets, with perhaps 25 to 30 coins known today, a figure that hews closely to the PCGS/NGC certified population of 27 specimens.
Splashes of cobalt-blue, violet-gray, and beige-gold patina bathes both sides of this Premium Gem proof. Frosted design elements are well struck and display modest variance with the mirrored fields when the coin is tilted slightly under a light source. A nicely preserved piece. Population: 1 in 66, 0 finer (6/09).(Registry values: P3)
