Bust Dimes
1830/29 10C JR-5, FS-301, R.2, MS65 PCGS. CAC. Underdigits emerge upon close inspection of this colorfully patinated Gem. The 1830/29 variety is listed in both the Guide Book and Cherrypickers', and is also noteworthy for a repunched star 13. The placement of the M in AMERICA relative to the scroll distinguishes JR-5 from its JR-4 FS-301 alternative. Rich rose-red, powder-blue, sun-gold, and peach patina embraces unblemished surfaces. The centers show minor incompleteness of strike, though peripheral elements are intricately impressed. "Bar" clash marks from the shield cross Liberty's neck, and die cracks pass through the 0 in the date.
