CCFPress Press Manager United States 1420 Posts	Posted 08/29/2024 10:36 am Heritage Auctions - Seven die marriages are known for the first-year dime. Star 15 lightly joins the drapery, a diagnostic characteristic of JR-2. Each digit leans sharply to the right, creating an "italic" date. The obverse shows light clash marks, minor die cracks, and a narrow rim break over stars 7 and 8. The reverse displays bold clash marks. An impressive Choice example with splashes of peripheral russet-brown toning. Devoid of relevant abrasions, and a desirable example of the two-year Small Eagle type. From The Duffy Family Collection. https://coins.ha.com/itm/early-dime.../1377-3033.s Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 236B, Variety PCGS# 38743, Base PCGS# 4461, Greysheet# 213015) Weight: 2.70 grams Metal: 89.24% Silver, 10.76% Copper Check out Certified 1796 Draped Bust Dimes on ebay. 79XiP7A-L0M -cmvUs6cZD0 Report this Post to the Staff

thq Pillar of the Community United States 3347 Posts	Posted 08/29/2024 7:11 pm Too bad I don't care for dimes. Now if it were a Half Dime, I'd be in the market...but not for anywhere near what they'd want. That said, I found a holed 1797 F-VF Half Dime not long ago and put it on my keychain. Same bust and eagle in miniature. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire Edited by thq 08/29/2024 7:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff
