Description

1860 F-101a Dime, MS68
Highest Graded Business Strike

1860 10C F-101a, R.4, MS68 PCGS. Ex: Bender Collection. The present lot is the single highest graded 1860 business strike dime, alone at the MS68 level at PCGS with none finer. At NGC, three are graded MS67 with none finer. The coin has frosty devices and semiprooflike fields, thus it is no surprise that the F-101a dies previously struck F-101 proofs. The strike is full and there are no apparent detractions. Most of the coin remains brilliant, but the borders offer brown, ruby-red, and green patina. Ideal for the collector who will settle for no less than the finest obtainable quality. Population: 1 in 68, 0 finer (12/22).
From The Bender Family Collection, Part III.
