Choice 1807 Draped Bust Dime

Lot 2108 Click on photo for enlarged version Click on photo for enlarged version
1807, JR-1, R-2. PCGS graded MS-63. Gorgeous steel gray toning on both sides of this early dime, with full luster in the fields. As usually seen, the obverse die shows clash marks around Liberty and the dentils are weak on the left sides. Excellent hair detail on Liberty and similar on the reverse, where the eagle is bold. Better surfaces than one might expect for the grade, and highly appealing for the issue. PCGS has graded 32 this high, with 30 graded higher.
Estimated Value $6,000-7,000.
