Description du lot

1873-S Liberty Seated Dime. Arrows. Fortin-101. Rarity-4. Small Thin S. MS-64 (NGC). Iridescent champagne-olive highlights drift across both sides of this flashy piece. Impressively sharp in strike to include a fully defined and crisp S mintmark. Brightly lustrous and frosty with a pleasingly smooth appearance in hand. With a lower mintage of 455,000 pieces and a high rate of attrition due to circulation, the 1873-S is definitely among the scarcer Arrows, Legend Obverse Liberty Seated dimes. It is rarer than the 1874-S, especially in the finer Mint State grades, as here. NGC Census: 31; 2 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 4667. NGC ID: 23BJ. Click here for certification details from NGC.
