Pretty decent old seated dime I found sorting through my stash of loose coins. Wish they all looked like this one, at least. And MORE of them would be nice, but these old ones are a good way to hold a piece of history in your hands, and i feel they are getting nothing but harder to find, in this shape and better. A good looking, honest wear, seated dime, right around 150 years old. I would guess its maybe a fine-very fine condition for the series, and im sure i dont have much more than scrap price from years ago in it $16-17 an oz, so a couple bucks or so? Not too bad a price for the honor to own such a cool old coin, and add to its history by keeping it in the condition it is in, i think its in original condition, or if its been cleaned, it was long ago id guess.

CONECA (pronounced: CŌ´NECA) is a national numismatic organization devoted to the education of error and variety coin collectors. CONECA focuses on many error and variety specialties, including doubled dies, Repunched mintmarks, multiple errors, clips, double strikes, off-metals and off-centers—just to name a few. In addition to its website, CONECA publishes an educational journal, The Errorscope, which is printed and mailed to members bimonthly. CONECA offers a lending library, examination, listing and attribution services; it holds annual meetings at major conventions (referred to as Errorama) around the country.
CONECA was formed through a merger of CONE and NECA in early 1983. To learn more about the fascinating HISTORY OF THE ERROR HOBBY and THE HISTORY OF CONECA, we encourage you to visit us our main site Here
