1805. 4 berries. JR-2. NGC graded MS-63. Lovely blue toning on the obverse while the reverse is mostly lighter lilac in tone. The most beautiful quality is that this specimen is far above average in strike, dancing with shimmering mint luster and only mild irregularity in the detail of the shield on the reverse. The coin is unusual for the 1798-1807 years with draped bust obverse and heraldic eagle reverse, which usually found circulated, almost never Mint State. The present coin a coin any serious buyer could want. The Draped Bust obverse is by Robert Scot. Reverse with Heraldic Eagle motif. The denomination is not stated on this coin, nor does it appear until the 1809 capped bust series replaces this heraldic eagle Type. Dimes of this design circulated extensively in the eastern states during the Jeffersonian period, along with a plethora of foreign (mostly worn) fractional coins such as Spanish milled reales. The consequence is that most Bust Dimes seen in the market today are worn. The few Mint State coins, if of decent quality, can be called scarce. (Incidentally, a few reverse dies used to coin Bust Dimes of this type were also used to make gold quarter eagles due to their similar diameter, a sense of the frugality we see time and again at the fledgling U.S. Mint.) Pop 20; 24 finer. Estimated Value $9,000 - 10,000. Categories: Dimes
