Lot Description

Boldly toned in rich cobalt blue and reddish-gold peripheral iridescence, this captivating Gem also sports an elegant cameo finish that is best appreciated with the aid of strong lighting. Popular for high quality type purposes, the centennial year 1876 Liberty Seated dime has a Proof mintage of 1,150 pieces. This is a generous total for the era, although Gem survivors are scarcer than one might think as many examples of this issue were likely acquired by non-collectors and not handled with the greatest care. This is a far superior example worthy of the strongest bids.
