1796 Draped Bust Dime. JR-1. Rarity-3. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC. Deep golden gray with lighter high points in pleasing contrast. Deep gold, fiery orange, crimson, and royal blue iridescence gathers on both sides. Visually sound in-hand with only a few light marks seen under low magnification. Nicely struck with better than typical design elements present for the type and grade combination. A readily identifiable die variety with a large cud forming at the first obverse star. From the first year of the denomination and the first of two consecutive dates with the Draped Bust, Small Eagle motifs. Choice for the grade.
