1849/8 Half Dime, MS66+
FS-301, Multicolor Toning

1849/8 H10C V-1, FS-301, MS66+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: Bender Collection. Cherrypickers' states that the 1849/8 half dime has a 4 in the date that "is at least triple punched, with one secondary 4 south and one east of the primary 4." The 9 in the date commands yet greater attention, although its underdigit, and even its overdate status, is contested. The Guide Book and PCGS call the variety an 1849/6, not to be confused with FS-302, a different (and also disputed) 1849 overdate. This splendid Premium Gem displays exquisite tan-gold, rose-red, and navy-blue toning. The strike is intricate, and the minimal contact is chiefly relegated to the field near star 3. Population: 6 in 66 (2 in 66+), 6 finer (3/23).
From The Bender Family Collection, Part IV.
