1874 10C Arrows PR (PCGS#4770)

The Regency Auction 48

详细说明: From our August 2020 Regency Auction, where it was described as: "What an amazing SUPERB GEM Proof Seated dime! The mintage of 700 Proofs is in line with other dates in the series, but for some reason, very few have survived in such a high grade. Indeed, this one is just one of two PCGS graded examples in PR67 with just a single PR67+ graded higher. Both sides of this GEM have a lovely iridescent patina with rich blue, rose, gold, and violet colors on both sides. The fields show off a wonderful watery reflection on the obverse, while the reverse has a blazing, bold, and blinding reflection that taken on its own would probably warrant a CAM designation. The strike is bold, and there are no distracting marks to be found anywhere. The eye appeal is very high end and extremely rare in such a fine state of preservation. The Arrows at the date were added, as they had been two decades earlier, to signify a weight change. The coinage act of 1873 raised the silver content of the dime, quarter, and half dollar in an effort to absorb some of the silver that poured from the Comstock Lode in Nevada." PCGS 2, NGC 1. This coin realized $15,275 in August 2020 and for $19,388 in our December 2019 Regency Auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $21,000. Just a single PR67+ is finer, a coin that brought $38,400 in 2018. This SUPERB piece is worthy of the finest Seated dime set. Cert. Number 39756502 PCGS # 4770
