    Description

    1837 Capped Bust Dime, an original "crusty"
    Choice AU example, certified PCGS AU-55.
    JR-4, Later Die State,
    the variety well known for the massive, cross-coin Obverse die crack that developed late in the die’s life. There could not have been too many coins struck from this Obverse after this one! Very original with golden-gray colored surfaces, with significant luster remaining (more than my images show).  As my images of the coin in the PCGS holder did not come out as well as I would like, images of the coin taken prior to certification are also provided as they may show the surface & details a bit better.   The JR-4 variety itself is not scarce (R-1), although by definition the LDS is a bit scarcer at least.  Either way, an excellent example to represent the Type.  FYI, PCGS attributed Population of only one coin in AU-55, with only one AU-58 and three in MS grades.  Oddly enough, I recently had another JR-4 in PCGS AU-58, although it was not attributed on the label.
    Worth a reasonable premium I think for the originality, which I find difficult to locate.  I am happy to combine shipping for multiple items – for best service please use the ebay Shopping Cart feature and ASK FOR A COMBINED INVOICE before payment, or contact me for a quote.
    I ship at my actual cost for Insured First Class or Registered Mail for your protection - I have been having "issues" with the Post Office, so am unwilling to take the risk otherwise.
