ziggy29 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Just purchased from David Lawrence today. Anyone who seriously knows Seated Dimes knows how unusual it is to find an 1866-S this well preserved and not dipped or cleaned. It was strong money, arguably stupid money, but IMO money well spent: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbrown4 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Ziggy, Nice Seated Dime, is that a Die Crack on the obverse extending diagonally up from the date? Also, I viewed your homepage and like your collection site including the photos and write ups you have included. Where abouts in the Hill Country? My folks used to live in Horseshoe Bay.

Also, I viewed your homepage and like your collection site including the photos and write ups you have included. Thanks. Yep, it's a die crack. It's a common diagnostic for variety Fortin-103. Some people thought it was a planchet lamination, and it does look like it somewhat, but it's a die crack. Where abouts in the Hill Country? My folks used to live in Horseshoe Bay. Small world.

IGWT Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 That's a wonderful coin, Ziggy. Congrats on the acquisition, the kind of addition to a collection that's not possible without patience and persistence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any opinions?? FWIW, digging thru circulated Roosies I have only found one silver out of around 100.00's worth of change.. Cherry Picker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
