A pinnacle survivor from the pre‑arrows era, this 1852 Liberty Seated Dime marries ultra‑gem preservation with a scarce and desirable die marriage. Certified MS‑67 by CACG and attributed Fortin‑115 (Rarity‑5), it offers the combination of technical quality, originality, and variety appeal that serious Seated specialists and top‑tier type collectors prize. Product Description: Struck during the final full‑weight year before the 1853 weight reduction and “Arrows” design change, the 1852 Seated Liberty Dime represents the classic Stars Obverse, No Arrows type. Premium Gem examples from this period are elusive, and few display the harmonious balance of strike, luster, and surface quality seen here. The devices are crisply impressed, with sharp star points, bold shield lines, and well‑defined wreath detail—hallmarks of a superior strike. Silky, undisturbed luster flows across the fields, complemented by pleasing originality and exceptional eye appeal typical of CACG‑approved premium gems. Attribution to Fortin‑115 identifies a scarce die marriage within the date, designated Rarity‑5 in the Gerry Fortin Seated Dime reference—seldom encountered and especially challenging at this lofty grade. For the variety collector building an advanced set, or the connoisseur seeking an elite Seated Liberty type coin, this piece checks every box: condition rarity, confirmed variety, and impeccable third‑party certification.
