Bid Information
For your convenience, the bid information on this page automatically refreshes with the most up to date data so you don't have to refresh/reload this page.Minimum Next Bid
Bid increments determine the lowest amount you may bid on a particular lot. Normally, bids must be at least one bidding increment over the current bid. However, podium, fax, phone and mail bidders submit bids at various times without knowing the current bid and must be on-increment or at a half increment (called a cut bid). Any podium, fax, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full or half increment will be rounded up or down to the nearest full or half increment. However, for Internet bids, these increments only apply to the current bid. Internet bids greater than one increment over the current bid can be any whole dollar amount. It is possible under several circumstances for winning bids to be between increments, sometimes only $1 above the previous increment.Number of Bidders
This number represents the number of individual bidders prior to the close of Internet bidding on each lot. An individual who bids more than once is still counted only once. During the live session, only the winning bidder is included in this number, although detailed records are kept of all forms of bids.Status
Reserve (If Any) Not Posted Yet:
Although many lots will not get reserves, this signifies that we have not yet posted any reserves to this entire auction. Reserves are usually posted approximately 3 days prior to the closing for Internet-only auctions, and approximately 7 days prior to the live session for Signature auctions.
Consignor Has Not Yet Submitted a Reserve:
Although the consignor's agreement allows a reserve on this lot, the deadline for submitting such a reserve has elapsed. If consignor submits a reserve post-deadline and the item fails to meet that reserve, we may charge the consignor a higher reserve fee.
No Reserve:
This lot is being sold without a consignor reserve.
(Note: By law, consignors may still bid under certain conditions, but they are responsible for paying the full Buyer's Premium and Seller's Commission if they do.)
Reserve Not Met:
A reserve has been posted on this lot, but no bids have met the reserve. The current bid has been set to the reserve amount, and the next bid will meet the reserve.
Reserve Met:
Reserves have been posted for this auction, and there is a reserve on this lot that has already been met.
Minimum Bid:
Lots bearing bidding estimates shall open at Auctioneer's discretion (approximately 25% to 60% of the low estimate).

Description:
Late Die State 1802 JR-2 Dime, AU55
1802 10C AU55 NGC. JR-2, R.5. A boldly detailed example of the scarce 1802 JR-2 die combination, in this instance with bold central and peripheral details. The surfaces have virtually complete satin luster beneath splendid gold and blue toning. A few tiny ticks are evident on each side, related to limited circulation. A tiny rim nick above the L in LIBERTY identifies this as the Lovejoy specimen.Die State. Faint clash marks appear above and below the bust. The right side of the reverse is shattered with more than 10 individual die cracks, one ending at the border just below the right wing tip forming a small triangular rim break.
Condition Census. Probably the second or third finest known 1802 JR-2 dime, behind the lone Mint State piece in the previous lot. In the dime book, this specimen was called the finest known late die state piece, a position it still holds today.
Appearances. Plated in the Lovejoy catalog.
Obverse Die. Tip of the hair curl is under the center of the B. Star 1 is distant from the hair curl, star 13 is closer to the drapery, and stars 7 and 8 are each very close to the L and Y. The 1 is close to the lower curl, and the 2 is about centered between the bust and border. The stars are all separated with star pairs 2-3 and 5-6 closer than the others. LIBERTY is evenly spaced with all letters separated and the L slightly low.
State a. Perfect. State b. Faint clash marks at the throat and a die line at upper right. The clash marks may only appear with reverse State e, described below. State c. The die line is weak, probably due to die lapping.
Reverse Die. Space between clouds is below right side of E, diagnostic. Star 2 is recut with eight points. Star 12 enters the eagle's mouth but touches neither beak. Its lower point joins the scroll above the center of U. Star 13 is far above the scroll and points to the left side of U. AME are extremely close with all other letters widely spaced.
Reverse die states. See our enumeration at the previous lot.
Heritage Commentary. The Stack's catalog of the Lovejoy Collection identifies this as the same coin that earlier appeared in their sale of the R.L. Miles Collection, held in April 1969. However, the plate of lot 603 in that catalog fails to match the physical coin or the plate of this coin in the Lovejoy catalog.
Consignor Commentary. This is easily in the Condition Census, probably second or third finest known. I have owned two other nice AU examples, but always preferred this one.
Provenance. Shoreham Enterprises, Ltd. (privately, 11/1983); Allen F. Lovejoy (Stack's, 10/1990), lot 19; Stack's (5/1997), lot 470.
From The Ed Price Collection.(Registry values: P7) (#4472)
