1845-O F-101 Dime, MS62
Better New Orleans Date

1845-O 10C F-101, R.4, MS62 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson-Bender. The 1845-O has a Guide Book mintage of 230,000 pieces, but just one die marriage is known. This is an early die state example without reverse cracks or rotated dies. The 1842-O is a better date in all grades but emerges as a formidable rarity above AU50. As of (12/22), PCGS has certified a mere three pieces as Mint State, including the Eliasberg MS69 wonder coin and a MS63 PCGS example from a September 2018 Legend auction. NGC has certified just one Mint State coin, as MS62. CAC shows a Mint State Population of only three coins, two in MS62 and one as MS63. Thus, the present coin is tied for third-finest certified, with the MS62 NGC coin from our August 2013 Signature. This lot has semireflective fields and is lightly toned save for a dollop of lavender toning on the rim below the right ribbon end. There are no noticeable marks.
Ex: Bob Simpson Collection of Seated Dimes / Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2010), lot 3630.
