DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1379 Posts	Posted 05/16/2023 12:54 pm I knew about the Early United States Dimes book for some time but wasn't aware of Bust Dime Variety ID Guide until rather recently. I will look for Winston Zack in the John Reich Facebook group. Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25460 Posts	Posted 05/21/2023 3:37 pm This one appears to be a statesof variety. My early bid of $20 does not appear to be in contention. https://hibid.com/lot/156611651/182...me-PCGS-ms63 Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Edited by HondoB 05/21/2023 3:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1379 Posts	Posted 05/21/2023 8:31 pm Here are the photos for my 1820 "statesof" variety. There's a light scratch seen on an angle. W. Zach didn't have an extra copy of the book, but pointed me in the direction of someone who did. It's in the mail. Edited by DoctorBurnzy 05/21/2023 8:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1379 Posts	Posted 06/25/2023 9:34 pm Winston Zach was able to point me in the right direction to find a copy of the Bust Dime Variety ID Guide. In the last few weeks, I've been delving into the coin series. I picked up a handful this weekend but mainly at the closing of the GreatCollection weekly auctions an hour ago but will show just a few. The first is a details coin though and the second a low grade...but both hard to find: 1821 Lg Date 10c - rarity 5 and a 1833 10c AG3 -rarity 5+. Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 06/30/2023 03:07 am I am glad Winston Zach was able to help you. He is very knowledgeable and of course, he is a co-author of the Dime ID Guide. Your collection seems to be growing quite nicely and you are finding some nice varieties like that 1821 JR-2. 1821 Jr-2 is quite scarce at R-5. The vast majority of the examples I have seen are in low grades. If I may, let me show you this JR-2 which I had lying around in a low grade miscellaneous coin tray for over 20 years before realising what it was. It was a nice surprise. The weakness at the tip of the bust is typical of 1821 JR-2. Report this Post to the Staff
