Lot Description

1829 Capped Bust Dime. JR-3. Rarity-4. Small 10 C. MS-64 (PCGS). Gold Shield Holder. Beautiful reddish-gold and cobalt blue iridescence greets the viewer from both sides of this sharply struck, highly lustrous near-Gem. Otherwise satiny in finish, direct lighting calls forth appreciable semi-reflective qualities in the fields that further enhance this coin's already impressive eye appeal. Among the finest known for this scarcer die marriage of the 1829 Capped Bust dime, and worthy of serious bidder consideration, as such. PCGS Population (JR-3 attribution only): 2; 0 finer. PCGS# 38828. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
