Description

1837 Capped Bust Dime. JR-4. Rarity-1. MS-65+ (NGC).

This satiny, smooth and handsomely toned coin will appeal to type collectors and early dime specialists alike. Both sides display a blend of rich steel gray, pale rose and cobalt blue iridescence. The strike is sharp and the surfaces are smooth as would be expected at the premium Gem grade level. Of the four known die marriages for the final year 1837 Capped Bust dime, JR-4 is the easiest to attribute as the only one with a fancy 8 in the date. This is the most frequently encountered variety of the issue, although in the finest Mint State grades it is rarely offered in today's market.

PCGS# 38894. NGC ID: 237H.

Estimate: $8’000.00
