Description
1856-S Dime, MS62
Early San Francisco Key
1856-S 10C F-101, R.5, MS62 PCGS. Ex: Bender Collection. The
1856-S Seated dime, minted to the extent of only 70,000 coins in
the third year of operation of the San Francisco Mint, is the key
to the Stars Obverse Seated dimes, along with the 1859-S. The issue
is scarce in any grade, rare above VF-XF, and extremely rare in
Mint State. This MS62 piece is sharply struck throughout, with an
unusual planchet lamination below star 7. The lustrous centers are
generally light silver-gray, with multicolored iridescence around
the margins. A few light, scattered marks are consistent with the
grade but unbothersome. A prize for Seated dime collectors.
