I have the 1858/1558 with the same obverse. I paid $170 with S/H for the coin above, had to have it, the seller did not want to move on the price much.

Fantastic! I'd love to find one of those, one day.
If its any help, I sent two raw 1893 round top 3 dimes into PCGS, somewhat nervously. They came back safely PCGS XF40 and XF45 :).

I would be nervous sending 1 but 2 is really brave. Nice grades still looking for 1 of those.

"If its any help, I sent two raw 1893 round top 3 dimes into PCGS, somewhat nervously. They came back safely PCGS XF40 and XF45 :)." It seems there are 3 times as many of the 1893 Round tops as 1858/1558's. I don't see more than 1 or 2 per year added to the ICCS Pop. Both tough coins, real nice when you find them unattributed.

Louis says 30, I say weakly struck 40. All undisturbed lustre around legend on obverse and almost no wear on reverse. Couple days ago I saw a weakly struck ICCS coin. I think it was graded F12 or so.

Registry hasn't changed. Every person who touches that mail has to sign for it, always under lock and key. Our loss rate on regular mail parcels is one in between 1000-2000, registry would be way lower than that.
