Lot Description

1875-CC Liberty Seated Dime. Mintmark Above Bow. MS-65 (PCGS). CAC. Gorgeous satin surfaces are highly lustrous with only the lightest champagne-gold iridescence denying full brilliance. Two reverse varieties were utilized for the 1875-CC dime, though the distribution of the mintages was not officially recorded. Q. David Bowers estimates that perhaps 75 percent of the 4.6 million struck were of the Mintmark Above Bow variety, as here, and 25 percent were of the Mintmark Below Bow. Though Choice specimens are readily available, survivors become extremely scarce in Gem grades, and they are rare any finer. PCGS Population: 21; 14 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 4673. NGC ID: 23AE.
