Wonderful coin. I would send it off to CAC for stickering, a green bean on this one likely increases resale value 10-20%.

What superb eye appeal in that NGC slab! A coin I could only dream of owning. Congrats Adam.

The coin was cleaned and has retoned in an odd way. The silver streak on the reverse is partly from blotchy retoning after the cleaning. A MS61 grade reflects that.

P.S. Another possibility is the cleaning solution that was used to whiten the center of the obverse got on a portion of the reverse removing the dark toning that (likely) covered both surfaces prior to cleaning.

BH1964: Thanks for your answer. You say "partly from blotchy retoning after the cleaning." What else could cause this streak?


And does anything think PCGS would cross it (at least at 61?)? I love NGC holders too, but a set of early dimes I am putting together is mostly PCGS slabbed. If not, it's OK, because "buy the coin, not the holder," but do you think it's possible for consistency's sake?

I remember seeing this coin at auction a while ago. It's cleaned and retoned, it would have been crossed into a PCGS holder already if people believed it would cross IMO. I also believe it will not CAC due to the surfaces and toning. Nevertheless, a fantastic example of our nation's early coinage!
