<strong>Obv:</strong> A right-facing bust of Martha Washington with the word VIRGINIA above and the fantasy date 1759 below. The inscription MARTHA WASHINGTON is present in the lower right field before the bust. <strong>Rev:</strong> Three-quarter view of the Washington family home at Mount Vernon with the inscription MOUNT VERNON below. The inscription HOME OF THE WASHINGTON FAMILY is present around the border. A frosty and brilliant example with boldly struck features. As noted at the <em>uspatterns.com</em> website: "This is the Martha Washington dime. It is believed to be the first metallurgical trials using the current cupro-nickel clad planchets. The Martha Washington obverse was designed by Edward R. Grove and the reverse is by Philip Fowler." Extant examples are believed to number 12 or more coins.
