Superb Gem 1875 Seated Liberty Dime
Among the Finest Certified

1875 10C MS67 NGC. CAC. The mid-1870s saw uniformly large mintages of Seated Liberty dimes from the Philadelphia Mint, and the 1875 date was struck to the tune of 10.3 million pieces. Of course, survivors in Superb Gem condition are very rare. NGC has certified eight examples in MS67, with none finer; while PCGS has graded only three Superb Gems, with none finer (3/10). The present coin is sharply struck, but the dies were lapped to the point that the first S in STATES is incomplete. The surfaces are enhanced by lovely blue, lavender and golden-brown patina on both sides.(Registry values: N1)
