Description
1857-O Half Dime, MS66
Possible Misplaced Digit
1857-O H10C MS66 NGC. Despite a mintage well into seven
figures, this is a condition rarity as indicated by the population
data. This example is a satiny Premium Gem with almost prooflike
fields and excellent aesthetic appeal. It is sharply struck with
virtually full-white brilliance. An unexplained characteristic: the
obverse has a raised, nearly vertical die line in the base of the
rock, directly below the left edge of the shield. To some it
appears almost as if it is a misplaced 1, with the serif hidden
below the curved drapery of Liberty. Census: 27 in 66, 4 finer
(5/11).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 233T, PCGS# 4366, Greysheet# 3821)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
