1875-S/S Twenty Cent, MS66
FS-302, Misplaced Date

1875-S/S 20C Misplaced Date, FS-302, BF-16, R.1, MS66 PCGS. One of two die pairs of the 1875-S twenty cent piece that earn a place in the Cherrypickers' reference, BF-16 shows the top of a misplaced 7 in the dentils below the primary numeral. On the reverse, the mintmark is boldly repunched. This Premium Gem example is one of the two finest BF-16 coins attributed at PCGS (11/20), and it is conditionally scarce in this grade as a date representative. Only a handful of finer 1875-S twenty cent pieces are reported, all varieties included. This piece is beautifully lustrous and tinted a warm golden hue. Minor strike softness on the obverse stars and Liberty's lap is not bothersome. No major abrasions are seen.
