Lot 338
1858. PCGS graded Proof 64. CAC Approved. A blast white Proof. Only 100 minted. The brilliant white surface displays light satiny frost on the devices and consistent reflective mirrors over both sides. A well struck and lustrous Gem Stars Obverse Seated Dime that has carefully preserved surfaces. Clear-cut devices point to it having been giving a full, clear blow by the dies. Weakness often occurs at a few locations on most of this issue such as the stars and Liberty's head to name but two. However on this handsome Dime, all areas are bold. Proof Dimes of this style are rare in any numismatic season, and we recommend that a liberal bid be placed to have fair chance to acquire this beauty. Pop 29; 13 finer, 1 in 64+, 9 in 65, 3 in 66 (PCGS # 4747) .
Estimated Value $1,800 - 1,900.
