Description
VF Details 1796 Dime
Important "No Cud" JR-1 Die State
1796 10C --Corroded, Tooled--ANACS. VF20 Details. JR-1, R.3.
An early die state (as indicated on the insert) without the cud at
star 1 ("No Cud" is also indicated on the holder). The
still-standard reference to the series, Early United States
Dimes 1796-1837, states "all specimens seen have die cud at S1
on obverse which increases in size until S1 obliterated." This
piece is an exception, and was presumably among the first few dimes
strike. In its A.N.R. appearance, that cataloger noted only one
other JR-1 was known without the star 1 cud, the high-grade Jimmy
Hayes-Whitney example sold in 1999.Silver-gray surfaces display whispers of purple color, especially on the reverse, and some micro porosity, again mostly on the reverse. A few minute contact and tooling marks are noted on both sides.
