Description

Draped Bust Dime
1796 Draped Bust Dime. JR-1. Rarity-3. VF Details--Plugged (PCGS).
The Draped Bust, Small Eagle dime was produced for only two years, and then only in modest quantities. Struck from at least six known die marriages, the first 1796 dimes were delivered on January 18, 1796, the mintage eventually topping out at a published figure of 22,135 pieces in all. The JR-1 variety, offered here, is one of the more easily recognizable of the known die pairs thanks to the presence of a prominent cud break on the obverse at star 1.
PCGS# 4461. NGC ID: 236B.
Estimate: $1500
