Description du lot

A wholesome, if low grade example of this key date Capped Bust dime issue. Warm pewter and blue-gray patina blankets surfaces that reveal only a few well scattered marks, and then again only under close scrutiny with a loupe. Wear is more extensive at the lower obverse and (especially) upper reverse borders, but the date is clear and the focal devices are well outlined. In their <em>Bust Dime Variety Identification Guide</em> (2015), Winston Zack, Louis Scuderi and Michael Sherrill account for only 200 to 250 survivors of the 1822-dated dime issue in all grades.
