Description
Superb Quality 1859 Seated Dime
1859 10C MS67 NGC. This dime has tiny artifacts (raised dots of metal) near the star points involving most of the obverse stars. Identical artifacts are discussed with the offering of two proof examples in this sale, however, this is from a different obverse die. The date is in a different position in relation to the border denticles, the shield point, and Liberty's skirt pendant. This is one of the finest existing business strikes of this date. PCGS has certified a single finer example as MS68, a coin we would like to see. This example has a richly toned obverse with satiny luster and pale orange color at the center, gradually changing to lilac, then light green with a crescent of azure along the right obverse border. The reverse is absolutely free of toning with fully brilliant white surfaces. The reverse fields are satiny with shimmering luster.(#4619) (Registry values: N1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2394, PCGS# 4619, GSID# 4052)
