1891-O Seated Dime, MS66
Final-Year O-Mint Issue

1891-O 10C MS66 PCGS. CAC. This Premium Gem 1891-O dime is sharply struck and fully lustrous beneath attractive gold and steel-blue toning.

Population Data (5/14): PCGS reports 11 submissions in MS66 with three MS67 finer. NGC shows its finest to be two in MS66.

Heritage Commentary: The final-year 1891-O Liberty Seated dime is quite popular, as it is the only affordable Legend Obverse O-mint series issue in Mint State. Gerry Fortin's Seated dime website shows more than 30 different die pairings for the issue.

Consignor Commentary: I was not able to match up this coin with any of the varieties listed in Fortin. The coin itself is well toned with good luster and I would rate the strike as above average. There is one interesting anomaly at 9 o'clock on the reverse. There is a bit of metal flow between the leaf and the rim almost like a continuation of the downward point of the leaf above.

Provenance: Dallas Signature (Heritage, 11/2005), lot 922; purchased from Bill Nagle (11/2005).(Registry values: N1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23BE, PCGS# 4707, Greysheet# 4145)
