Desirable 1807 Draped Bust Dime

1807 10C AU55 NGC. JR-1, R.1. The dies for 1807 dimes were used extensively, literally until they wore out. In addition to the coinage of 165,000 dimes, the reverse die was used to produce all quarter eagles dated 1805, 1806, and 1807. As such, these coins exist in a wide range of die states, from early states with crisp details on both sides, to late die states that show considerable die wear. This is an example of the later die state. Note the heavy clash marks in the obverse fields, the prominent die bulge through BER of LIBERTY, and the peripheral weakness on both sides. This example is frosty and lustrous, and while appearing to have considerable weakness, is actually a relatively sharply struck coin. The surfaces are essentially untoned with just a hint of champagne color on each side.(#4480) (Registry values: P5)
