.
PCGS graded MS-68
. This is one of only two MS-
68 examples thus far graded by PCGS with none higher.
This nearly perfect Liberty Seated dime is a candidate for a
superlative Registry Set. Each side is toned in a similar
fashion. The centers are silver-gray, gradually deepening to
reddish-russet hues that continue to change to colorful iri-
descent teal at the borders. The strike is very sharp includ-
ing Liberty's head and the leaves of the wreath. Faint die
clashing is noted with close examination. A stunning condi-
tion rarity that will add great dimension to even the most
advanced collection.
Pop 2; none finer at PCGS.
