1859 Stars Obverse Dime, Superb Gem
Exquisitely Preserved Surfaces

1859 10C MS67 NGC. One of the last Stars Obverse dime issues, the 1859 saw a sizable six-figure mintage but is a distinct rarity at the Superb Gem level. This well-defined and profoundly lustrous example has obverse toning in cerulean at the margins and peach on the interior, the latter color forming the reverse's border-toning with a fade to silver. NGC has graded no MS68 or better representatives (2/12).(Registry values: N1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2394, PCGS# 4619, Greysheet# 4052)
