Seated Half Dimes
1865 H10C MS68 NGC. A single set of dies was employed to strike 13,000 half dimes in 1865. Silver coinage was virtually unseen in Eastern circulation during the Civil War, explaining the low mintage. The upper portion of Liberty is brilliant and contrasts markedly against the ice-blue toning that covers much of the obverse. The reverse exhibits a violet center surrounded by a thick band of blue. This visually impressive Superb Gem is made all the more desirable by its status as the single-finest certified example (5/17).
