I believe I see damage to the last digit, particularly in the upside down obverse photo. Closer images of the date would really be necessary, but I'm still thinking 58. Here is a comparison of the dates for a 53-O and a 58-O. The '5' seals the deal for me, the 5 in the OP's coin looks more like the 5 in the 58, than the 5 in the 53.

its an 1858 or the only known 1853-O w/out arr making it the only known one in existence and probably very valuable even in current condition. I say 1858 however. date is way too off to be an 1853

In response to dssfreeworld "I say 1858 however. date is way too off to be an 1853" I'm not sure I understand what exactly you mean by date is way to off to be an 1853. New collector could you explain Please and Thanks.

It is an 1858-O, It looks like it took a hit on the "8".

Mintage of only 290,000 makes this one scarce!

Since I have posted this coin and stated it was a 1853 O Seated Liberty dime with several other members stating it to be an 1858 0 one reason given was due too the fact that this dime has no arrows..... Well I still believe my dime to be an 1853 O Seated Liberty dime Without Arrows even though most disagree.I have researched and it took me a while but I have found proof of the 1853 O Seated Liberty dime No Arrows. Please go check it out to see for yourself. Thanks for all your helpful comments http://www.coin-collecting-guide-fo...ty-dime.html

Unless I am missing something, the link you provided shows that there were zero 1853-O Liberty Seated dimes with No Arrows minted

Hi ghedary!
No 1853 dimes without arrows were minted in New Orleans. At some time in last 150+ years your coin took a hit on the eight.
hope this helps!

I'm not sure you're really walking the proper course here.
