1822 Dime in MS66

Alltheabove76

I see in the pop there is one MS66 out there. Does anyone know where I can see a photo of it?

No idea, but a TTT in hopes of seeing such a coin. Must be a beauty.

Thanks! Its an NGC and not a good pic. Looks like they are selling it for 50K less than it sold for in 2007.

Just to be clear, PCGS CoinFacts shows a PCGS MS66, and an MS65 "Estimated Grade" as #1 and #2 in the condition census. The NGC MS66 on Collector's Corner may be #2 but is definitely not #1.

If you were trying to advertise a 95K coin, don't you think you would take better pics than those scans?

it would make too much sense for people to do something like that.

That photo is good enough to show any shortcomings in luster, strike, eye appeal, etc.

Would someone buy a coin like that without seeing it?

‭The PCGS has certified an 1822 as MS-66 and a different 1822 as Proof-66. A third 1822 has been graded MS-66 ATS. I mention all three in today’s article on 1822 dimes. Please read.

Excellent read. I COMPLETELY agree with your comment at the end that the NGC-66 "barely makes the grade".
This was the ONLY coin I looked at in the Dallas ANA Heritage Auction, and I spent a few minutes examining it closely. I
felt the coin would be better suited in an MS-65 holder, but such is NGC pushing Bust Silver coinage up half-a-grade, and
often to the next grade level, especially in regards to coins which have been altered (in this case I refer to 'dipped' pieces).

I also found the toning to be acceptable although not overly exquisite. I don't think I saw any original luster, and therefore
in my notes I called the coin "a bit of a clown" - with a mask of unoriginal surfaces (from the dip) and secondary colors
(aka 'secondary toning')
