1834 JR-5 Bust Dime, MS67
Among the Finest at PCGS
An Early Die State, Vividly Toned

1834 10C Large 4, JR-5, R.1, MS67 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Bender Collection. A pointed stub of the crossbar on an oversized 4 identifies the JR-5 variety, a readily available die marriage among 1834 dimes, but nonetheless rare in Superb Gem condition, such as this colorfully toned example. Dappled beige-gold accents enliven the overall vivid turquoise-blue toning. The coin is sharply struck from an early die state, with a light crack through STATES and a trio of light cracks through the date. Later JR-5 die states show a cascade of heavy reverse die cracks and cuds through multiple, more advanced die stages. The 635,000-piece mintage required seven varieties, making 1834 dimes interesting for specialists by the early and late die states. Among Large 4 varieties, this vibrant and sharply struck example offers tremendous eye appeal supported by CAC-endorsement. A Superb Gem, it is tied for numerical finest at PCGS, with a single Plus-graded example marginally finer. Population (all Large 4 varieties): 3 in 67, 0 finer. CAC: 4 in 67, 0 finer (11/22).
