1833 Dime, Last 3 High, JR-5, MS65+
The Well-Respected Norweb Coin

1833 10C Last 3 High, JR-5, R.1, MS65+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: Norweb-Bender. Its October 1997 appearance in the Norweb Collection Part 1 auction proclaimed the satin-smooth, iridescently toned High Last 3 1833 dime was "possibly finest known." Still thoroughly attractive and highly lustrous, this sparkling, Plus-graded Gem is only marginally surpassed by five other Last 3 High examples at PCGS, of which only one or two pieces are definably finer. Largely subjective factors separate the high-class coins that share rarified air at the top, not the least of which is CAC endorsement, possessed by only two coins -- including the present example. Lovely steel-blue shades embellish the medium, silver-gray surfaces that display fleeting rose highlights illuminated by bright mint luster. Like most JR-5 coins, the strike is sharp throughout, with a faint die crack that angles through Liberty's cap and another crack that bisects O in OF on the reverse. We suggest this Norweb-Bender coin represents an important upgrade for ascending Registry Sets in the highly competitive Capped Bust dime arena. Population (Last 3 High varieties): 3 in 65 (1 in 65+), 5 finer. CAC: 2 in 65, 0 finer (6/22).
