1870-S Liberty Seated Dime. PCGS graded MS-64. Lightly toned. Semi prooflike. 50,000 coins minted. A lovely example of this very scarce S-mint date, there are no obvious bagmarks on either side and the color is fresh, natural, medium golden brown to "old school" gray. About as fully struck as these are normally found, with just terrific detail in the head and shield of Liberty (two areas were problems can occur). With so few pieces struck, most of the mintage was dropped into circulation and only a tiny percentage was set aside in high grades. Pop 5; 10 finer; 8 in 65; 2 in 66. (PCGS # 4652) .
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000.

 
Realized $4,600
