1872 "S" seated dime

1872 "S" seated dime

I buy and sell coins on E-bay,
Not a pro' by no means
This coin has me fooled, only 190,000 made, no proofs.
Yet i can't fnd one anywehere for sale, and value is low in the Red Book & PCGS
Every time I do a search on it, it comes back with HALF-DIMES
Ton's of them
Am I missing something here
I wanted to sell it, but now, maybe I'll keep it
Thanks for lookin


Tim

P.S. I sold a 1914 "S" barber quarter for $350.00, and there was 264,000 made of them

I found several 1872 dimes on e-bay. 1 - 72-s with 1 bid of $89.00 with 5 days left.

Thanks les.

They weren't there a couple of days ago
Actually only one
The $89.00 one.
My mint mark is below the reef
Never heard of 1872 above the reef

Mintmark information:

"Besides the Philadelphia Mint (no mintmark), this coin type was minted in New Orleans in 1860 (O) and in San Francisco (S) from 1863 through 1873. The mintmark is found below the bow, except on the San Francisco issues of 1870 through early 1872, where it appears within the wreath."
