Losbeschreibung

A beautiful coin dressed in iridescent sea-green and steel-olive toning. The Proof mintage for the 1858 half dime is estimated at 250 pieces (per John W. Dannreuther, 2025); for years it was thought the mintage was just 80 pieces! Even the higher number bears no relation to the availability of specimens in today's market, since many are thought to have remained unsold at the time and subsequently released into circulation. This is a scarce coin that would serve with distinction in any advanced collection.
