Victoria "Large 9" 10 Cents 1899 MS65+ PCGS, London mint, KM3. Large 9 variety. The 1899 Large 9s dime is significantly scarcer than its Small 9s counterpart, and in Mint State, the Large 9s is about twice as rare. The obverse of this specimen is blast-white and lustrous with only the lightest hints of a red-gold tone forming at the peripheries, whilst the reverse exhibits an intensely vibrant crescent of deep cobalt fringed with a russet haze. Barely represented at the premium gem level, the last example we handled of similar quality (although without the coveted 'plus' designation) realized $4,250 at our April 2013 auction, and we anticipate an even greater response for this superior specimen six years on.
