Description

1802 10C AU50 PCGS. JR-2, R.5. Light silver-gray surfaces host slightly deeper peripheral toning on both sides, with ample luster and traces of high point wear. This attractive dime has a few hairlines and other abrasions on each side, entirely consistent with the grade. When we offered the magnificent Ed Price Collection, examples of this variety that graded MS61 and AU55 were considered the two finest known 1802 JR-2 dimes. The present piece trails the AU55 by a small margin but almost certainly still resides in the Condition Census for the variety.
