Liberty Seated Dimes - Carson City Date Sets
Click image to access Gerry Fortin Rare Coins Inventory
Collecting the Carson City dates within a complete Liberty Seated Dime set is always the major challenge for completing the set. Availability of the challenging 1871-CC through 1874-CC key dates has improved recently with significant pricing increases bringing out additional examples. However, collectors typically struggle with ever escalating prices and with difficulties in finding original circulated examples that are not corroded or have not been cleaned or "restored" via artificial toning. The latter point requires special attention even for Carson City dimes in the leading TPG holders. Many times, net graded coins are the only option for completing a Seated Dime set. In a stark contrast to the 1871-CC through 1874-CC dates, the later 1875-CC through 1878-CC dates are readily available, with the 1878-CC date being a bit more challenging.
This Carson City Date set registry is an opportunity for each registry participants to highlight the key dates of their prized Seated Dime collections.
Submission to the Carson City Date Set registry can be accomplished via input forms located at the Varieties, Business Strikes page. Once a complete Seated Dime set is submitted, the Carson City dates can be extracted to populate the Carson City registry set. I will do my best to quickly post your set or recent updates quickly!
