1859-O Liberty Seated Dime. Fortin-103. Rarity-2. Medium O. MS-65+ (PCGS).A gorgeous Gem with colorful iridescence blooming on each side. Gold and tangerine hues glow at the centers while the border are cooled by turquoise and lime shades. Well struck and frosty, lacking any notable evidence of handling. Although ranking among the easier New Orleans Mint Liberty Seated dimes to locate in lower grades, the 1859-O is scarce to rare above the VF level. As a premium quality Gem the lovely coin here offered here is decidedly in the latter category and is worthy of the strongest bids. Just 15 coins have been certified finer by PCGS.
