Noteworthy Near-Mint 1846 Dime

1846 10C AU58 PCGS. CAC. In The Complete Guide to Liberty Seated Dimes, Brian Greer writes of the 1846: "Fairly scarce in any grade and rare in XF and above. This is the lowest mintage Stars Obverse seated dime (excluding varieties)." With just 31,300 pieces struck, the 1846 dime has less than half the mintage of the more famous 1844 issue, the "Little Orphan Annie." This gorgeous near-Mint representative offers impressive luster with just a hint of friction on the high points. Elegant lavender, gold, and sea-green shadings grace each side, and marks are minimal. Population: 2 in 58, 2 finer (5/09).(Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 238D, PCGS# 4588, Greysheet# 4037)

Weight: 2.67 grams
