Date & Mint: 1878 (Philadelphia, no mintmark)
-
Grade / Holder: MS‑63, certified in the classic ANACS Soapbox slab
-
Variety: VAM‑31 “Lines Through Leg,” TOP 100 — fine die‑polishing lines across the eagle’s left leg, a diagnostic prized by variety hunters
-
Design Type: First‑year 7 Tail Feathers reverse, struck after the brief 8‑TF issue but before the 1879 reverse tweaks
-
Metal Content: 90 % Ag / 10 % Cu — 0.7734 troy oz actual silver weight
-
Rarity: Attractive MS‑63 examples of this Top 100 variety are far scarcer than lower‑grade survivors
Eye Appeal & Condition
Brilliant cartwheel luster rolls across frosty silver surfaces, lighting up Liberty’s hair strands and the eagle’s breast feathers. Light, scattered bag marks keep the coin solidly in the MS‑63 range, while crisp devices clearly reveal the “Lines Through Leg” variety. Untampered original skin shows subtle gold highlights at the rims—no cleaning or artificial toning.
