1873 Open 3, No Arrows Dime, MS64
Only One Finer Coin at PCGS

1873 10C Open 3, No Arrows MS64 PCGS. The design of most U.S. silver coinage was modified twice in 1873, first by replacing the Closed 3 in the date with an Open 3 that looked less like an 8, and second by placing arrows at the date to indicate a weight change instituted to bring the intrinsic value of coins into line with their face value. This coin was struck during the interval between the two changes, as it shows the Open 3 in the date, but no arrows. This well-detailed Choice example displays satiny mint luster under attractive shades of champagne-gold and powder-blue toning. Population: 1 in 64, 1 finer (7/13).(Registry values: N991)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23AB, PCGS# 4660, Greysheet# 4067)
