GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1851 Posts	Posted 08/08/2016 6:03 pm I was recently able to add an 1827 JR-2 (flat top 1 variety) to my capped bust dimes. I am really excited about this, and consider myself fortunate to have now 3 of the 10 scarcest Capped Bust Dime varieties in my collection: 1821 JR-2 (found in my 'junk' box) 1824/2 JR-2 (pointed top 1 in date), and my latest acquisition 1827 JR-2, flat top 1. All of my examples are low grade, but the 1827 is within the 20 best known, and the 1824/2 JR-2 ranks probably a little higher. These are just scarce coins, and in any better shape they get very pricey as one may expect. Your opinions are welcome. Report this Post to the Staff

mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 02/26/2018 9:07 pm Hello, I thought that this thread would be the most applicable one to help me differentiate between the 1824/2 regular strike and the 1824/2 JR-1. When I look at these CoinFacts photos it appears that the two aforementioned types of coins are very similar: both having the presence of the flat tipped '1' on the 10 C etc. Please explain how to tell the two apart: http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/38805 http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/4502 Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11898 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 10:52 am 1821: VG8 but details due to the deep dig in the right obverse field. Left field is also disturbed. 1824/2: F12 with nice full rims. Would be 15 if the hair above the eye was a little sharper. 1827: VG10. Weak reverse rim holds this back from Fine imho but the coin is sharply struck with all stars raised way above the fields. Thank you for sharing these beauties from your collection. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
