Description

Elusive 1868 Half Dime, MS66

1868 H10C MS66 PCGS. V-2. The date on this business strike slopes downward noticeably from left to right, and the head and most other details are boldly struck. The small postwar subsidiary silver mintages continued with this issue, struck to the extent of only 88,600 pieces. Lovely sage, copper, and lilac patina covers both sides, which show a remarkable lack of distractions. Scarce in Mint State, and rare so fine. Population: 5 in 66, 2 finer (3/09).
