Lot 2158
1861 Liberty Seated Dime. PCGS graded Proof 65. A lovely toned proof example of this date. The surfaces show ample blue toning over gunmetal gray, with gold intermixed. Fully impressed by the dies and without fault. Easily a gem, and a very pleasing coin. PCGS has graded 10 as such, with just 4 graded higher. An important offering from the original 1,000 minted, obviously few of which could approach the grade and eye appeal of this example.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250.
From the Michael Riordan collection.
