1797 13 Stars Dime, VG8
JR-2, Strong Borders

1797 10C 13 Stars, JR-2, R.4, VG8 PCGS. There are two varieties of the 1797 Draped Bust dime, and both are Guide Book listings due to their different star counts on the obverse. JR-2 is the 13 Stars Obverse. This circulated piece displays significant wear, hence the VG grade, but it is evenly struck with complete borders despite the advanced wear -- this is unusual for early dimes. Deep gunmetal-gray, blue, and violet hues comprise the patina.
