1857 SMALL DATE Braided 1C NGC PR65RB
Early on the large cent was an unpopular coin. Demonized for its large and "heavy" nature, the large cent was often refused as a medium of exchange. This along with the rising cost of production, (a situation not unlike the modern Lincoln cent) caused the United States Mint to rethink minor coinage. In February of 1857, the flying eagle cent replaced the cornet large cent. This is one of only 238 proof examples struck. A light lavender patina throughout exhibits glimpses of the original mint red. Extremely pleasing eye appeal, historical significance and general condition rarity make this gem an amazing find.

1858 SMALL LETTERS Flying Eagle 1C NGC MS66
Bright tan in color with slightly reflective, semi-prooflike fields. The Small Letters variety, issued in the second half of 1858, is marginally scarcer in high grades than the Large Letters variety, although it currently does not command a significant price premium at this grade level. Combined NGC and PCGS have graded 23 of the 1858 Small Letters in MS66 with none higher, compared with 48 in MS66 and 2 higher for the 1858 Large Letters.

1864 LARGE MOTTO Two Cent Piece NGC MS66RD
The Two-cent piece is notable as the first United States coin to bear the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The motto was put onto the coin owing to a national upswing in religious fervor during the Civil War. The nearness of the T in TRUST to the ribbon crease distinguishes the Small Motto version, and the leaf stem below is clear. A nice bright red example.

1883 WITH CENTS Liberty 5C PCGS PR65 Cameo
A true Cameo example of the first year the words CENTS were placed in the design. Infamously, the original 1883 No Cents nickels simply had a V, the Roman numeral 5, indicating the coin's denomination.

1873 Seated Liberty H10C PCGS PR66 Cameo
In 1873, the United States economy entered a long depressionary cycle. The tough times affected rare coins in a number of ways. The Mint Act of 1873 called for the elimination of the silver half dime, the two cent piece, and three cent silver coinage. In its final year of production, the Philadelphia Mint only produced 600 proof half dimes. But, during July of that year an unknown number of these were melted .This example survived the smelter and is well preserved. Polished dies are evident and fully lustrous devices give this example the appearance of a coin fresh off the press.

1807 Draped Bust 10C PCGS MS62 (CAC)
JR-1, the only known dies, R.2. Interestingly, the reverse die for the 1807 dime had previously been used to strike four quarter eagle issues: the 1805, 1806/4, 1806/5, and 1807. As a result, most of the examples known today display multiple die problems, as the die became quite worn from the continual pounding on both the silver and gold planchets. Like most examples of this issue this one is struck from clashed dies. But, unlike many, it displays clean surfaces and plenty of fresh looking luster. In addition, the strike is quite above average, as nearly all design elements are well-defined. Rounding out the coin’s universal appear, the peripheries of both sides exhibit a lovely band of rainbow color surrounding light champagne centers. CAC certified.

These obverse characteristics are always paired with what the authoritative reference book Early United States Dimes 1796-1837 refers to as reverse A, in which the scroll begins under the right edge of upright of D and ends under right tip of left base of M.

1858 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS PR65
The total mintage for proof dimes in 1858 is quoted from 80 to 300. The actual number is not known, but the population data for the date suggests the total is somewhere in between these numbers. It is known that eighty proof sets were produced and distributed during that year, all of which contained a dime. Regardless of the actual mintage figures, this date remains elusive. Great reflectivity is evident beneath a rich mixture of yellows, blues and rose tones

1859 Seated Liberty 10C NGC MS65
After being changed in 1853 to note a reduction in weight, the old Stars Obverse design was resurrected on Dimes in 1856 and it continued through 1859. In 1860 the Legend Obverse design was adopted. All Stars Obverse Dimes are very scarce in MS65 and above and this superb piece is nearly untoned, displaying a hint of champagne rose near the periphery.

1859 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS PR66 Cameo
Produced in an era when the U.S. Mint first started marketing proofs to collectors, the 1859 was not well received at the time of issue, leading the majority of the 800 coin mintage being melted as unsold at the end of the year.This is only PR66 Cameo for the entire Stars Dime category, with only a single coin higher for the type within the Cameo designation.

1860 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS PR67 Cameo
The first year for the Legend Obverse type, which lasted until 1891. The words United States of America replaced the Stars on the obverse, while the reverse wreath was made larger to replace the missing words. One of only 2 so graded by PCGS, none finer. Vibrant sunset peripheral hues enhance champagne centers.

1862 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS MS66
A Civil War issue that is scarce to find in high grade. It was 1862 when the Union suspended specie payments and widespread hoarding began throughout the North. Thankfully this piece was not melted along with thousands of other wartime coins. Fully struck throughout with superb mint luster that glows beneath sharp design details.

1869 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS PR66 Cameo
From a mintage of a mere 600. Tied with a single other coin for the finest graded for the date. There are no PR67s within any designation, nor Deep Cameos save for a single PR65. In fact there are only 2 PR66 non-cameos for the date. A delightful band of rainbow color circles bright centers.

1871 Seated Liberty 10C NGC PR65 Cameo
Often found weakly struck, this sharply defined specimen's only weakness appears in the reverse left wreath, a problem that plagues proof dimes pre-1874. The intense cameo contrast and impressively preserved surfaces make this earlier dime a quality find for the both date and type collector.

1874 ARROWS Seated Liberty 10C NGC PR65 Cameo
Arrows were added to the Seated Liberty design in 1873 and 1874 on the dime, quarter and half dollar denominations to signify a change in weight from previous years. After 1874 the design was discontinued although the weight of the issues remained the same, making this issue a scarce two-year type. This stunning example is untoned with bright, reflective surfaces.

1875 Seated Liberty 10C PCGS PR66
Absolutely magnificent obverse color comprised of chartreuse and fiery red atop bright, reflective fields; the reverse is toned in green and blue shades at the top and is mostly untoned at the bottom. There were 700 Proof 1875 Dimes produced but, for some reason, contemporary collectors and dealers did not save examples as they did in the years immediately thereafter. As a result, this is a very rare issue in Gem and one that is seldom seen with good color. Only one example has been graded higher than this by PCGS.

1879 Seated Liberty 10C NGC MS67*
This superb example is one of only 14,000 mint state examples struck during 1879, one of the lowest mintages for the series. Designated MS67 "star" by NGC, this coin is well deserving of this coveted designation. Blazing white with reflective devices, this specimen is as frosty as the day it left the mint.

1880 Seated Liberty 10C NGC PR67
The tiny business strike mintage (36,000) means that proofs, of which 1,355 pieces were made, must do double duty. This aesthetically and technically superb example offers abundant appeal, with bright golden centers complementing the violet, turquoise and rose on each side.

Out of the 1,100 proofs, this magnificently toned Seated Liberty dime has survived in an unsurpassed state of preservation.
