Owner's Description

Cameo although not designated so. Nice, concentric blue album toning on the obverse, golden on reverse. No obvious flaws to the naked eye. Another wonderful coin from Mark Feld. It seems that nations may rise and continents may fall but the quality of Mark's coins is the one consistency in the universe. Really! :)<br /><br />*************<br />1870 DIME<br />*************<br /><br />Mintage:<br />Circulation strikes: 470,500<br />Proofs: 1,000<br /><br />Designer: Obverse by Thomas Sully, executed by Christian Gobrecht, modified by Robert Ball Hughes and James Barton Longacre; Reverse by James Barton Longacre<br /><br />Diameter: ±17.9 millimeters<br /><br />Metal content:<br />Silver - ±90%<br />Copper - ±10%<br /><br />Weight: ±38 grains (±2.5 grams)<br /><br />Edge: Reeded<br /><br />Mintmark: None (for Philadelphia, PA) below the ribbon bow on the reverse
