A wonderfully preserved and totally original GEM 1857 dime! Satin mint frost catches the light and brings life to vibrant iridescent toning that graces both the obverse and reverse. The surfaces are quite impressive, free of any contact. The devices are well struck and the lovely toning adds dimension to the design, imparting a sensational visual allure. PCGS 9, NGC 12, CAC 4. The most recent example to sell realized $5,040 in the 2021 ANA auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $4,000 and the CAC CPG value is listed at $3,750. Just a handful are graded higher and this PQ GEM is worthy of the finest of sets. Good luck! Cert. Number 43796091 PCGS # 4614
