Choice Original, Newtown Collection. Gene Gardner enjoyed acquiring duplicates, and this piece resided in his collection along with the MS69 (not a typo) example of this date. While the MS69 piece is lightly toned, this piece is richly patinated in shades of electric violet, lilac, and copper-red. F-101a, with a die crack extending from the R in AMERICA toward the rim. A few lines in the right obverse field preclude CAC certification. The 1845-O is an important condition rarity in the Seated dime series, and the PCGS population rapidly decreases as one advances from EF (28 pieces) to AU (16 coins), to MS (three examples). The CAC guide value is $4,200. Ex. Gardner, Lemus (Stack's, 10/18/2005, lot 583). Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder. December 1969
