详细说明

JR-2, R-4+. Outstanding quality for an 1800 dime with gorgeous gunmetal blue and champagne toning on both sides. Flashy luster is everywhere and comes alive when examined under a light. The strike is prodigious and full, with all the stars and curls bold on the obverse, along with the details of the eagle and stars on the reverse. No adjustment marks or hits to be found with a strong loupe and while there are few minor scuffs on the obverse, the reverse is super clean. There are perhaps twelve to sixteen Mint State 1800 dimes known, and these are broken down between two varieties produced of roughly equal rarity. The Pogue MS65 coin just brought $141,000.00 this year, the finer Gardner coin in MS66 and finest brought $352,500.00 (6/14). Aside from this solitary MS63 there is one MS63+ and one MS64 in the PCGS Population Report. Certainly not many to choose from! A coin of the highest rarity in in this condition and worthy of any advanced collection. Early dimes are one of the most challenging series to collect. Precious few survive at all, and historic records of great collections often fall well short in this particular series. If you’re a serious collector and hope to put together a date run of this denomination then here is a fantastic start. The rarity of many of these issues is simply not understood by most collectors, and high circulated grades are also quite challenging to acquire. An important opportunity! PCGS 2, NGC 2, CAC 3. Auction record of $51,750.00 (2/13) for this grade. Don’t miss this handsome coin if you are serious about landing a high-end, high appeal early dime. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
