Description

1823/2 10C Large Es MS60 NGC. JR-3, R.2. All 1823 dimes feature an overdate, and in this variety star 7 points to the top of the headband and the Es are large in the reverse legend. An unidentified anomaly is located immediately adjacent to the 3, where a rounded bulge of Mint origin was seemingly caused by damage to the die. This example appears to be from a very late die state because of the die cracks from the leaves to the tip of the wing and rim, as well as tiny cracks connected from stars 8 and 13 to the bust. Except for the crack from the leaves to the rim, these die defects are unreported in Early United States Dimes, 1796-1837 (1984). Pleasing silver-gray toning covers both sides. Minor weakness is noted in a few stars, but otherwise this piece is sharply struck. An interesting piece for the variety specialist.(Registry values: P3)
