Description
Elegant 1879 Dime, MS67 ★ Prooflike
1879 10C MS67 ★ Prooflike NGC. The 1879 dime shows a mintage of 14,000 circulation strikes. Mint State examples are more available than the small mintage would suggest. Prooflike specimens are scarce, however; NGC has certified just 15 examples with this finish, only four of which are designated with the coveted Star. The mostly white surfaces of this Superb Gem display light gold color at the margins and yield pleasing field-motif variance at all angles. The design features are well struck, including Liberty's head, an element that is often flat. Only the upper left portions of the wreath are soft. A few minor grazes might well preclude an even higher numerical grade. Census: 2 in 67 ★ Prooflike, 1 ★ Prooflike finer (6/09).(Registry values: N1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23AS, PCGS# 4687, GSID# 4075)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
