Description
1852-O Half Dime, Satiny MS64
Scarce in All Grades
1852-O H10C MS64 PCGS. CAC. The 1852-O has a deceptively
high mintage of 260,000 pieces. We say deceptively high because the
majority struck were melted in 1852 and early 1853 as they were
worth more melted than their face value. That situation was
remedied in February 1853, but for silver coins produced in the
early 1850s widespread melting renders mintages largely irrelevant.
Scarce in all grades, and especially challenging in mint condition,
only 13 other pieces have been so graded by PCGS and NGC combined
with 12 finer (5/12). The satiny surfaces of this coin are
brilliant throughout and the striking details are fully detailed on
each side. Light die clash marks are the only mentionable "flaws"
on the obverse or reverse.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2007), lot 882.(Registry values: N2998)
