DoubleEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1750 Posts	Posted 03/22/2015 2:07 pm Correct, germanicvs. The mintages were generally much lower for dimes and quarters, along with many years where none were minted. The Capped Bust half dollar only skipped 1816, due to a fire at the mint. When we get into the 1830's, you may see more dimes and quarters.

Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 03/22/2015 2:26 pm Quote: As an side observation - the overwhelmingly majority of coins posted thus far in this thread have been half dollars. Only a handful of quarters have been posted, and unless I have overlooked something, no dimes as of yet. I am guessing that this reflects the lesser availability of the quarters and dimes today v.s the half dollars? (as opposed to popularity?) As DoubleEagle20 correctly mentions there are a number of years pre 1820 that there wasn't Capped Bust quarter or Dimes minted and those years they were minted tend to be quite expensive for the average collector especially in VF or higher. When we get into the 1830's the prices for these coins drop considerably so we should see more examples. Hopefully we will see some Capped Bust Half Dimes later on in this thread too. They started being minted in 1829 and are fairly obtainable in the 1830's. Edited by Joe2007 03/22/2015 2:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
