Sometimes you have to look hard for a mintmark



This 1866 is an S mint, these are often passed of as the more expensive P mints due to the weak mintmarks.

1875 S Shattered Reverse


While a very bold error this coin is not very hard to locate. The in wreath S is much harder to come by than the 1875 S below wreath.

1887 S PCGS MS65, New Shattered Reverse



This coin is unlike any other 1887 S I have seen, I have checked auction lots to see if there is another and thus far not. With only 3 graded higher at PCGS this coin is rare enough and would seem the finest known of this new, intersting variety.

1855 Seated Dime - Crack from Star 4 to Liberty


This is an unpublished coin and a very major error, hard to see with the original toning on this coin.

1877 CC Dime Type II Unlisted



While you may not see it, there is a light cc placed high and left on the reverse of this coin.

1839 Pie Shape Obverse


While this is a well known Variety it is, in my opinion the King of all Seated Dime Varieties and there are 3-4 known that I am aware of.
