Description

1820 Capped Bust Dime, VF20
Medium 0, Rare JR-12 Variety
Only About a Dozen Pieces Known

1820 10C Medium 0, JR-12, R.6, VF20 PCGS. By far, JR-12 is the rarest 1820 dime variety. Only about a dozen pieces are known, and we have handled very few of this variety in the past 26 years, including the Jules Reiver discovery coin. This is a problem-free VF20 example, evenly toned in rich, slate-gray shades, with lighter silver-gray areas at points of wear. Sharp definition remains on the wing feathers and Liberty's hair strands for the assigned grade. The surfaces are smooth and attractive throughout both sides. Population (for the variety): 1 in 20, 3 finer (7/19).
