Lot 773
1909-D. NGC graded MS-67. Well struck with light golden toning. This is a thickly frosted, Superb Gem quality representative of this desirable Denver Mint Barber coinage. Clockwork precision seen in the portrait fine points such as the leafy tiara that adorns Liberty; also full-scale sharpness in the cereal wreath on the reverse. The wreath carries over from the Seated Liberty Dimes of 1860-91, albeit redesigned to show crisper lines and a more delicate appearance than before. As would be expected of the assigned MS67 grade, there are no marks, hairlines, or abrasions. An outstanding and original type coin, one featuring a remarkably low census in this grade: Pop 2; none finer at NGC.
Estimated Value $6,500 - 7,000.
