Description
1879 Dime, MS68 ★ Prooflike
Outstanding Visual Appeal
1879 10C MS68 ★ Prooflike NGC. Fortin-105, R.4. The date is
repunched, as seen on the flag of the 1, inside the lower loop of
the 8, and inside and below the 9. On the reverse, a long die crack
surrounds the wreath from 10 to 5 o'clock, and several parallel die
lines are seen in the leaves at 9 o'clock. This example is clearly
one of the first strikes from a fresh die pair, as evidenced by
deep mirroring in the fields, and ranks as the single
finest-certified Prooflike example (7/14). A thin ring of
lemon-gold toning surrounds the frost-white devices, while the
surface preservation is exceptional.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23AS, PCGS# 74687)
Weight: 2.49 grams
