Little Orphan Annie Dime, Rare Grade, Steely Frosted Luster, Newtown Collection. This original 1844 Seated dime offering, via the Newtown Collection, was purchased from GFRC during 2016. 1844 dimes are well known for being hoarded in lower circulated grades and continue to be available. This date become rare at the AU grades with few arriving to market. This example provides pleasing bright light viewing with steely frosted luster and active cartwheels. Toning is a light gold probably consistent with a light dip prior to being encased. Strike is typical for the issue. PCGS has certified all of three pieces at the AU53 level with the last auction appearance dating back to 2009. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.1 (2002-2004) holder. December 1969
