Description
Condition Census 1849 Half Dime, MS67
1849 H10C MS67 NGC. Produced in the first year of the California Gold Rush, the 1849 probably witnessed extensive melting through the mid-1850s. Nevertheless, this issue is relatively obtainable through the MS64 grade level. Gems are scarce, and the present example is one of only three MS67 examples known to both major grading services, and it is bettered by just one (12/07). Predominantly frosty in texture, the surfaces reveal glints of brightness in the fields at select angles. There is a dusting of golden-gray patina over both sides, being a little more intense on the reverse, as well as iridescent peripheral crescents of cobalt-blue and lavender. An exquisite coin in terms of both technical quality and aesthetic appeal.(Registry values: N1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 233D, PCGS# 4341, Greysheet# 3774)
Weight: 1.34 grams
