Mint State Rarity

1840 10C Drapery, F-101, R.3, MS64 PCGS. Ex: Green-Bender. The 1840 No Drapery dime commands more attention, but it is the Drapery variety with only about a dozen specimens remaining in Mint State. The No Drapery is comparatively plentiful in Uncirculated condition. This Drapery near-Gem displays the beautiful multicolor peripheral toning associated with the Newman silver coins. Powder-blue, brown, red, and sea-green toning endows smooth and nicely struck surfaces. Population: 2 in 64, 1 finer (12/22).
