Lot Description

1814 Capped Bust Dime. JR-3. Rarity-2. Large Date. MS-62 (PCGS). Brilliant apart from a few wisps of iridescent champagne-pink and rose-russet, this lustrous and frosty example also offers sharp striking detail to most focal features. One of the more readily obtainable dates in the Capped Bust, Wide Border dime series of 1809 to 1828, the 1814 has an estimated population of 1,750 to 2,500 coins in all grades (per Winston Zack, Louis Scuderi and Michael Sherrill, 2015). We stress, however, that no issues or varieties of this type are plentiful in Mint State, especially relative to the demand that such coins enjoy among today's quality conscious collectors. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Earlier from Paramount's session of Auction '87, July-August 1987, lot 53. PCGS# 4488. NGC ID: 236W. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
