The Seated Liberty Dime was produced at multiple branches of the U.S. Mint for more than half a century, a classic coin that has been in demand on the collectors’ market ever since. Although one of the largest strikings of these coins occurred in 1868 — reaching some 464,000 coins, more than the combined mintages of the prior half-decade — it is still incredibly rare to find Mint State specimens. According to the globally-recognized coin grading service PCGS, the survival estimate of Seated Liberty Dimes with a Mint State Grade of 60 or higher from that year is no larger than 40 pieces. JM Bullion is pleased to offer the 1868 Seated Liberty Dime for online purchase in a truly exclusive listing.
Coin Highlights:
One of the leading coin grading services in the world, PCGS sets the industry standard for reliable certification of rare coins. Issuing reliable grades for certain types of coins can be challenging: the Seated Liberty Dimes of 1868, for example, were struck using twelve die pairs, two of which were used for striking both Proof and circulation coins. Even among experts, this created confusion about which coins had proof or circulation strikes: the kind of confusion that a PCGS-certified grade is great for dispelling.
This 1868 Seated Liberty Dime ships in a tamper-proof plastic slab with a label indicating its grade of Mint State 62. This means acceptable eye quality and a slightly impaired luster, clusters of small contact marks, and the possibility of noticeable nicks and hairline scratches in prime focal areas. JM Bullion fully insures your shipment against even the remotest chance of mishap.
The coin’s obverse side feature Lady Liberty seated, holding a shield with one hand and gripping a wand with a Phrygian cap adorning its end in the other, framed by the inscriptions “United States of America” and “1868.” The reverse bears an inscription of the face value “One Dime” framed by a laurel wreath.
