Owner's Description

F-101. From Stack's sale of the remarkable Lemus dime collection (complete from 1796-1915) in October, 2005, lot 579. Fortin calls the date R-7++ in mint state, but it really seems to be R-8. Only two coins ever have been certified in mint state, this coin in MS-62, and another in MS-65 undoubtedly the Eliasberg coin. The current coin is no match for that coin, but it is a beauty, sharply struck with eye appealing toning. There are no obvious marks on the coin although there is some light chatter in the obverse fields which can be seen under high magnification.
