Comments: Obverse 16 exhibits strong die clash marks to the left and right sides of Liberty. Interestingly, Reverse O shows no signs of clashing indicating that Obverse 16 was previously paired with another reverse die. To date, I have not found an 1876 Carson City dime with a strongly clashed reverse. The entire denomination of ONE DIME is doubled on Reverse O. There are faint die cracks in the lower left wreath, which extend to the tops of the Small CC mintmark.

Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, PCGS MS63
