1855 Arrows. NGC graded Proof 65. Only 25 minted. Lovely blue toning on both sides. An important Type that is seldom found in Gem Proof grades, and especially rare this spectacular. Toned to a fair-thee-well with rich iridescent blue on the obverse and reverse including a few lavender to add even more substance. Superbly struck and preserved, with traces of hairlines (scarcely noticeable) and no handling marks. Estimates range up to 25 Proofs being struck, and NGC has graded 5 this high, with none higher, therefore tied at the high end and strictly near or at the very top of the Condition Census for Proof 1855 With Arrows. A date which is seldom offered at auction, and worth a premium for its radiant, colorful toning. Pop 5; none finer at NGC . After three years running from 1853 to 1855, in 1856, Mint Director Eckert's replacement, James Ross Snowden, directed the arrows be removed from the coinage, as very little of the old-tenor pieces which had been withdrawn and melted to strike these With Arrows pieces, remained in circulation. Seated Liberty dimes continued to be struck at the Philadelphia and New Orleans Mints as well as at the newly built San Francisco Mint until 1892, when the design type was replaced by Charles E. Barbers Liberty Head. Estimated Value $19,000 - 20,000. Categories: Seated Liberty Dimes
