Description
Magnificent 1805 4 Berries Dime, JR-2, MS65
1805 10C 4 Berries MS65 NGC. JR-2, R.2. Only two die marriages of 1805 dimes are known, and they are attributed without difficulty since they have a different number of olives in the branch on the reverse. Although JR-2 is available in well circulated grades, Gems are irrefutably rare and coveted by both type collectors and early dime specialists.Frosty mint luster and unabraded surfaces provide exceptional eye appeal to this magnificent early dime. Wisps of tan patina intermingle with luminous pearl-gray color. The portrait of Liberty is crisply struck, and the eagle is also bold, aside from slight softness on the vertical shield lines. Census: 15 in 65, 12 finer (1/09)
