Description

Interesting Near-Gem 1830 Medium 10C Dime
JR-3, With Extensive Die Cracks

1830 10C Medium 10C MS64 PCGS. JR-3, R.3. If other diagnostics were needed besides the extensive die cracks on both sides, we cite the position of the 0 in the date about halfway under the lowest curl, the nearness of stars 4 and 5, and recut 30. The obverse die appears quite close to failure at star 7, where branching die cracks have produced a small raised triangle just in front of the cap. Extensive other cracks visible in the photos cover several areas around the peripheries on both sides. This piece has lots of luster, with silver-white centers ceding to light golden-pink near the rims. The strike is excellent, and only a couple of faint scrapes on Liberty appear to preclude an even finer grade. Population: 23 in 64, 19 finer (4/10).(Registry values: N2998)
