1848 Liberty Seated Dime. Fortin-101. Rarity-3. MS-64 (NGC).Pretty pinkish-silver and golden-apricot iridescence blends with satiny luster on both sides of this endearing near-Gem. The 1848 (just 451,500 pieces produced) is one of the scarcer Philadelphia Mint dimes from the 1840s, especially in the finest Mint State grades, as here.
