- Splendid High Grade 1860-O Liberty Seated Dime Condition Rarity
1860-O Liberty Seated Dime. Fortin-101, the only known dies. AU-58 (NGC).
One of those overlooked dates and mints that for many years has been slowly finding the recognition it deserves. High grade pieces are indeed rare, and with the growth of date and mint collecting of this series, it is hard and harder to find a pleasing example for an advanced collection. Pricing pressure on those that do come up seems to be growing. Notice the gunmetal-blue and rose toning on the obverse while the reverse is satiny silver with a hint of blue. The strike is bold throughout, with the wreath sharp too. The recorded mintage by the Federal authorities is 40,000 pieces, it is doubtful that the Confederacy or Louisiana issued any further after each respective entity took over this mint in 1861 during the Civil War. Survivors are few and far between of this date and mint. Excellent surfaces and eye appeal for the specialist.
PCGS# 4632.
NGC Census: 1; 3 finer (MS-67 finest).
