Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $3,000.00 Perhaps better but limited by very faint hairlines beneath the gold and blue toning. Strong lustre and sharply impressed with full definition on Liberty's tiniest curls and all but a couple of obverse stars showing their full radial centers. Sharp on the reverse too, with more intense blue and gold peripheral toning, lighter silver at the center. Identifiable by a minute planchet void...  more 452 1811/09 JR-1 (R-3) AU $1,100.00 About Uncirculated. The surfaces have more microscopic disturbances than normally encountered, peppering both the obverse and reverse. Toned with attractive light blue and russet in the fields. Early reverse die state with two minor cracks above the eagle and rim crumbling above 'MER'. 453 1814 JR-3. Large Date, No Period after 10 C. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $4,600.00 A lovely strike and harmonious light gold on pleasing silver combine for outstanding appeal. This reverse shows a criss-cross of advanced die cracks at the center of the shield. Here is a pleasing, high grade survivor of this scarce Capped Bust issue. NGC MS64. 454 1820 JR-1. ''STATESOFAMERICA'' Choice Brilliant Uncirculated CH BU $2,500.00 Frosty lustre in the fields and attractive for the delicate gold and blue-gray toning. The strike is a trifle soft on the highest curls of Liberty and the eagle's claws, areas seldom seen fully impressed on this variety. The surfaces are excellent although a loupe will discover a few faint hairlines and a minor tick or two. A clashed obverse die shows outlines of the eagle's wings in the left...  more 455 1820 JR-13. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $2,750.00 Frosty with light gray to silver and pleasing to the eye. An average strike with softness on Liberty's uppermost curls and the eagle's thigh and claws. A couple of trivial nicks are found on the inside of stars five and six. Both dies show clashing from the central devices. 456 1825 JR-1 (R-4). Gem Brilliant Uncirculated GEM BU $3,000.00 Blazing lustre in the fields and well frosted on the devices, particularly on Liberty. Rich coppery-gold toning around the periphery favors the obverse, less so the reverse. A tiny planchet streak connects the first star to Liberty's bust, another is found on her cheek. Early die state with no rim crumbling present, but the obverse die shows three separate clashmarks in the field from...  more 457 1828 JR-1. Small Date, Square-Base 2. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated CH BU $1,400.00 Small denticles and a small period after '5 C' define the reverse. Attractive blue and rose toning adds to the appeal of this wholly original example of this important date. 458 1829 JR-4. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $700.00 An exceptional strike on this early Dime with needle-sharp stars surrounding Liberty and each of her curls bold. Similar on the reverse, where even the tiniest details are fully struck on the eagle's claws. Toned with an eye pleasing mix of blue and gold iridescent colors, and well frosted on the devices. Moderate hairlines account for the grade, but no other surface marks present themselves...  more 459 1829 JR-7. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $400.00 - nearly Choice. Attractively toned with bluish-gray in the fields, lighter gray at the centers. Scattered handling marks can be discerned with a loupe. The strike is fairly sharp, but not as sharp as seen on the other example of this variety in the present sale. 460 1829 JR-7. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $525.00 Dark gray throughout and attractive. The strike is bold on Liberty's fine curls, and the eagle's claws and feathers show strong definition. A loupe will discover a thin pin scratch on Liberty's nose toward the fourth star, and another in the field below. Early die state. 461 1830 JR-3 VF $140.00 Very Fine. A medium gray example that has no major detractions, just honest wear; 1835 JR-5. Very Fine. The centers are a bright gray with the rims a medium ebony. A decent strike describes this coin. 2 pieces. 462 1831 JR-5. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $400.00 - but exhibiting several dull nicks on the obverse. Lovely iridescent toning on both sides. 463 1833 JR-6. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $7,250.00 - with claims to Gem. This is an extraordinary coin that has the appearance and striking characteristics of a presentation piece. Well frosted on the primary devices, particularly Liberty and the surrounding fields are decidedly reflective. Close examination will confirm evidence of double striking on most of the stars and date, and the reverse legend also has traces of doubling along the tops of the letters....  more 464 1834 JR-5. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $400.00 - or better. Light gold toning over lustre and sharp. A middle die state with a thin die crack through the base of the '834'. 465 1835 JR-9. Gem Brilliant Uncirculated GEM BU $2,500.00 Rich copper-gold with blue and purple accents on the reverse, more golden on the obverse. Sharply struck throughout, and very attractive. The surfaces are outstanding and the only tick present is a minor graze on the rim below the '1' in the date. Although a common variety, quality of this magnitude is rare and in demand. 466 1836 JR-1 (R-3). Gem Brilliant Uncirculated GEM BU $3,250.00 Magnificent toning which ranges through blue, gold, green and russet over strong lustre in the fields. Boldly struck and well preserved, with no surface disturbances that deserve description. Early die state for this pairing. Well up in the Condition Census and probably tied with a couple of others as the Finest Known of this issue. 467 1837 JR-4 (R-4) EF $250.00 Extremely Fine. Attractive golden toning over decent surfaces. Well struck, which adds further to the appeal of this very scarce die variety. A lovely orginal coin that should be fiercely bid upon by Bust Dime specialists. Page 1 of 1  •  First  Previous  Next  Last
