- Lot Description
- 1883 Seated Liberty Dime. Proof-68 (PCGS). Secure Holder. Obviously a very special coin, this low-pop condition rarity is one of only two so-graded examples of the 1883 Seated Dime known to PCGS. And with no coins graded finer, it is obviously at the apex of Condition Census for the issue. A dreamy-looking specimen, both sides are fully struck with silky-smooth surfaces. There is not even a single detracting blemish, and the original finish shines forth powerfully in all areas even despite the presence of gorgeous cobalt-blue and copper-rose iridescence around the peripheries. A delight to behold, and a coin that is fully deserving of a premium bid.
