<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coinman0456, post: 748480, member: 18177&quot;]In my opinion the 1846 actually is far more scarce . The 1844 had a mintage of 72,00 or so and the 1846 roughly half that figure. In that era , Frank C. Ross hoarded the 1844 Dimes and hyped the issue as being very rare/scarce. The 1846 is far more difficult to locate in &quot; all grades&quot; than is the 1844, which is scarce in Mint State survivors, but more likely to be found more readily in the lower grades. For my money, I&#039;d add the nicest 1846 I could afford, before spending a dime on an 1844. Do some research and try to establish some history as to how frequent these two coins come to auction. I&#039;ll bet money, marbles &amp; chalk the 1846 is by far less frequently available in any grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
