An Incredible Collection of Seated Liberty Dime Die Caps From the Carson City Mint
This is an amazing mint error discovery from the Carson City Mint! Unbelievably, four Liberty Seated Dime die caps escaped the mint together! There are three obverse die caps and one reverse die cap.
It is very likely that one of the three obverse die caps fits together with the reverse die cap, creating a mated pair.
Major mint errors from Carson City are extremely rare and these four die caps rank among the finest known mint errors in the Seated Dime series and from the Carson City Mint!
