Edward VII "Broad Leaves" 10 Cents 1909 MS65 PCGS, Ottawa mint, KM10. Broad leaves in reverse wreath variety. In 1909, a new reverse was prepared for the dime that featured wide leaves with pronounced veins. Both the older Victorian and the new Broad Leaves reverses were used during that year. Although the exact mintage of each type is unknown (the combined emission was just under 1.7 million coins) the Broad Leaves reverse is undoubtedly scarcer - particularly in Mint State. This example not only boasts an impressive gem level grade, but also exhibits a higher quality level of production than is average for the type, Edward's portrait more sharply defined than one usually sees. Its full luster is still present, but this has been somewhat superseded by a rich champagne tone. The last example of this quality we handled sold at our January 2010 auction for $3,500 hammer - we have no doubt that this piece will generate a similar level of excitement.
