Description

1891-O 10C MS 66 NGC. While this brilliant Gem is worthy of note as a spectacular example of this popular O-mint issue, the die characteristics are even more interesting and deserve special mention. The dies are heavily clashed, and almost the entire wreath design is discernable on the obverse. The reverse die is cracked in several places around the peripheries, especially through the mintmark, where three parallel cracks are present. The obverse rim is crumbled in several places, leaving the impression that not many more pieces could have been struck with these dies.
