The Regency Auction 29

详细说明: A beautiful Morgan dime pattern. The famous Morgan Liberty head on the obverse makes this look like a mini-Morgan dollar in copper. The reverse has ONE DIME inside a beaded circle with E PLURIBUS UNUM above and an olive wreath around. Struck in copper with a reeded edge, it is listed as Low R-7, with fewer than 12 examples believed to have been minted. This AMAZING looking pattern dime is the CoinFacts plate coin and for good reason! Its look is dramatic. Rich red mirrored fields have a bold contrast against the frosted devices. Violet overtones can be seen when rotated in a light, but coin is mostly brilliant RED. Sharply struck up, every detail is sharply rendered. The beauty and elegance of this design makes us wish that the mint adopted it. PCGS 2, NGC 2, CAC 3. This is the only 65+ RB graded, and we think that the populations reflect this coin as both a 65 and 65+. PCGS has graded 8 in all color and CAMEO designations total, this one among the FINEST numerically graded and is a true prize for any pattern collector. The Collector's Universe Price Guide does not list a value in 65+RB, but is listed at $11,500 in 65 and $16,500 in 66 RB; we think this GEM will cause the price guide to be rewritten when the hammer falls. Good luck! Cert. Number 35367691 PCGS # 71966
