Grade and variety opinion for 1821 dime.....

I think it's a JR5 with an R-3 rating. The third star is heavily doubled and the last one (182'1') in date is doubled at the bottom.

The last picture is much more representative of the coins' true colors.

    Realone, it is definitely a 45, and maybe a 50 if there's any bit of luster.

    Not a shabby looking coin there DE59 image

    The luster isn't that great.

    But I've seen MS examples with similar lack of luster.
