Lot 565
1844 Liberty Seated Dime. EF-45. The "Little Orphan Annie" dime, so called by Frank C. Ross, a hack writer from Kansas City who hoarded this date for years, then promoted it selling off his hoard at a useful profit (Breen). This particular example has been cleaned, and tends toward a certain dullness in the color application. Nevertheless, it still remains a popular, low-mintage date and this coin boasts smooth, even wear and damage free surfaces.
