1829 Capped Bust Dime. JR-10. Rarity-5. Curl Base 2. Good Details--Holed (PCGS).

The most easily attributable die marriage of the 1829 Capped Bust dime, and the only one of the Curl Base 2 Guide Book variety, the style of the digit 2 confirms the JR-10 designation. This is also the rarest of the 12 known die varieties of the issue and, although not as elusive as once thought, only 50 to 75 examples are extant per our estimation. The present example represents a significant find for the budget minded specialist in Bust dime varieties.

PCGS# 4512.
