1 Dime / 10 Cent    (sold for $3300.0)

1853. Arrows. PCGS graded MS-66. Well struck and fully white. This is a coin with the stopping power of a freigh train, a blast-white MS66 that no top-quality Type set should be without. The technical quality is nothing short of Superb with only the lightest ticks widely scattered over generally smooth-looking features keeping it from MS67 quality. The overall appearance is uncommonly pristine for the Type, and fully intact mint luster is also worthy of praise. More-or-less silvery white iridescence yields to heavier frost in select areas around the designs. Sharply struck throughout with eye appeal to spare. The 1853 Arrows dime as a three-year type in the Seated series of 1837-1891. Obverse arrow were added to the design that year to denote a weight reduction for this denomination per the Coinage Act of 1853. (In addition to the arrows, rays were added to quarter dollars and half dollars, marking the weight change for them as well.) Survivors of the 1853-P delivery are easily obtainable in most grades, although we stress that high-quality Mint State examples are scarce-to-rare in the market. Clearly, the present lot deserves careful consideration among advanced type collectors. Pop 34; 20 finer, 1 in 66+, 15 in 67, 3 in 68, 1 in 68+ (PCGS # 4603) . Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,200.
