Description
Extraordinary MS67 ★ 1879 Dime
1879 10C MS67 ★ NGC. The 1879 dime had a very low mintage of circulation strikes, only 14,000 were produced, and as a result many show bright prooflike fields. When closely inspected one sees just a hint of mint luster in the otherwise reflective fields, but many would mistake this for a proof at first glance. The surfaces are brilliant throughout and the strike is well brought up on each side. There are a couple of small coin-to-coin contact marks on each side that further reinforce the business strike status of this piece. Extraordinary quality overall. Census: 8 in 67 ★ , 3 finer (4/10).(Registry values: N1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23AS, PCGS# 4687, GSID# 4075)
