1842 Seated Dime, MS66
Tied for Finest at PCGS

1842 10C MS66 PCGS. Fortin-106, R.2. A scarce early With Drapery Seated dime issue, rarely seen in Gem or finer condition. This is tied with just three others as the finest certified at PCGS (12/14). Both sides display just a hint of light golden color over frosty, delicately preserved surfaces. The strike is sharp, with the diagnostic die lines through Liberty's elbow for this variety clear. This piece is from an earlier die state than the plate coin on the Fortin website, with no crack visible from the rim to the E in STATES.(Registry values: N1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2386, PCGS# 4581, Greysheet# 4033)
