 1877 10¢. Gem Brilliant Proof. Wonderfully uniform smoky steel toning overlies deeply glittering silver. One of 510 Proofs struck, and certainly among the finest now available. This coin's striking quality is dramatized by its partial wire rim and in its wealth of meticulous detail on both sides. For sheer quality, rarity and arresting beauty, it would be difficult or perhaps impossible to duplicate today.
