1850 Liberty Seated Dime. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC.,Lovely satin white surfaces support intense mint luster and a sharply executed strike. Dime production at the Philadelphia Mint remained strong in 1850 despite the onset of the California Gold Rush. While rising silver prices likely resulted in the melting of many of these old tenor coins, the mintage of 1,931,500 circulation strikes helps explain why worn survivors are relatively available in todays market. Mint State examples are scarce, however, and this premium quality MS-64 represents the finest realistically obtainable for most Liberty Seated enthusiasts.,From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection.
