Lot Description

1807 Draped Bust Dime. JR-1, the only known dies. Rarity-1. AU-58 (PCGS). From the final year of the Draped Bust dime series comes this handsome and inviting Heraldic Eagle example. Ringed in halos of rich cobalt blue, the peripheries frame brilliant centers on both sides. Striking detail in the former areas is a bit soft, typical of the issue, although Liberty's portrait and the eagle are sharp to allow full appreciation of this classic U.S. Mint design type. Ample luster remains to surfaces that are pleasingly smooth in hand despite a brief stint in active circulation. Provenance: From the BASH Collection.
