Description
Choice VF 1804 14 Star Reverse Dime
JR-2, Ex: James Stack
1804 10C 14 Stars on Reverse VF35 PCGS. Ex: James Stack.
JR-2, R.5. The reverse distinguishes the JR-1 and JR-2, the only
two varieties for the year and each rare in an absolute sense; the
former has a reverse with 13 stars below the clouds, while the
latter displays 14 stars in that constellation. The JR-2, 14 Star
Reverse is less frequently encountered in the numismatic
marketplace, though the assessment of Davis, et al. in
1984's Early United States Dimes 1796-1837, which considered
the JR-2 twice as rare as its JR-1 counterpart, may have overstated
its rarity somewhat.This richly toned Choice VF example is pleasingly detailed for the grade and fundamentally appealing. Slate-blue, silver-gray, and mocha elements converge on each side. Apart from a few small abrasions in the fields, the surfaces are generally smooth. For the JR-2 variety, Population: 1 in 35, 5 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P8)
