Lot Description

1858 Liberty Seated Dime. MS-65 (NGC). This is a warmly patinated, fully original example with a bold strike to satiny surfaces. A high mintage (1,540,000 circulation strikes) Liberty Seated dime for its era, the 1858 is a popular issue to represent the Stars Obverse design in type sets. We caution bidders that Mint State survivors are scarce (seateddimevarities.com: Rarity-4-), particularly at the Gem grade level, as here. PCGS# 4616. NGC ID: 238Z. NGC Census: 16; 13 finer (MS-68 finest).
