1805. 4 berries. PCGS graded MS-66.A frosty white gem which shows just a dash of delightful golden toning. The strike is fairly sharp with good separation on Liberty's curls as well as on the eagle's wing feathers. All legends and devices are sharp. Curiously both the obverse and revese show fine adjusting lines which were imparted by the early Philadelphia Mint to reduce the weight of this particular planchet. Clearly this planchet was a tad heavy, and Mint workers were required to shave off any excess weight before striking the coin. Once the coin enters circulation these adjusting lines fade away with just minimal circulation, but here on this gorgeous gem coin the lines are still prominant. This coin today is regarded by PCGS to be one of the very finest to survive, as the surfaces show virtually no signs of handling, and the original mint luster and frost are intact. This is one of the finest known 1805 dimes and worthy of a powerful bid. Pop 5; 6 finer, 2 in 66+, 4 in 67.(PCGS # 4477) Estimated Value $45,000 - UP
