Lot Description

1821 Capped Bust Dime. JR-8. Rarity-2. Small Date. MS-62 (PCGS). OGH--First Generation. This target-toned beauty is layered in blended steel-blue, salmon pink, olive-charcoal, antique gold and cobalt blue colors that are most vivid when observed with the aid of a strong light source. Striking detail is sharp to full over most design elements, the surfaces lustrous with a satin to softly frosted finish. Desirable Mint State quality for the conditionally challenging Wide Border Capped Bust dime type of 1809 to 1828. The old style PCGS insert uses coin #4496, which is now reserved for the Large Date Guide Bookvariety of the 1821 dime. Provenance: From The Dr. Andrew Mitchell Collection. PCGS# 94496.
