Seated Half Dimes
1854 H10C Arrows -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. Unc. The Arrows, Stars Obverse type was issued only in 1853, '54, and '55, at the Philadelphia and New Orleans Mints. The Philadelphia issues are the more plentiful option for type and date collectors. This piece is sharply struck from heavily clashed dies. Unnaturally bright patina with russet toning accents betrays an old cleaning. A few scattered abrasions are not bothersome.
