An 1873 CC NO ARROW DIME with a mintage of 18.7+ K with arrow. Sold for 1.6 Million $... NOT BAD for a DIME..Hobby of a KING!
Aren't most of these very expensive coins bought by large firms as an investment and then placed in a vault? What is good about coins at the Smithsonian is that they are on display for anyone that wants to see them. Has anyone been to the Smithsonian and seen the numismatic section?
