I like 1829 Dimes!

1829 has always been my favorite date in the Bust Dime series...even before I found the nice 1829 Curl Base 2 a couple years ago.
This date provides a great diversity of major and minor type varieties, including Extra Large, Large, Medium, Small, and Large over Small 10c, as well as the famous Curl Base 2 in '1829'.
There are 12 known die marriages for this date and several are quite challenging to find in nice, original condition. I currently own 11 of the 12 die marriages, including the very scarce
and desirable 1829 JR-10 Curl Base 2. I am only missing the JR-5 die marriage which is an R4 (if you have one in nice VF/EF condition and are willing to part with it send me a PM).
I am quite pleased to have recently acquired 2 rather nice 1829 Dime examples - the 1829 JR-8 came from Rich U while the 1829 JR-12 came from dpvilla.
I am very content with most of the examples shown below, but the moderately available 1829 JR-2 needs some catching up to do in terms of condition with respect to the others listed!
Enjoy
JR-1 PCGS-25
JR-2 G-6 (raw)
JR-3 Fine (raw)
JR-4 PCGS-45
JR-6 PCGS-20
JR-7 F+ (raw)
JR-8 EF+ (raw)
JR-9 PCGS-40
JR-10 PCGS-35 (I formerly owned this coin)
JR-10 PCGS-8 (my replacement)
JR-11 Fine (raw)
JR-12 EF+ (raw)

Nice coins. I enjoyed looking at them.
Stone - Never knew you picked up a replacement JR-10.
Please don't tell me it was a cherry pick, again ?
Very impressive group of CBD's !!

MFH,
I picked that one up almost 16 months ago...for a bit less than it should have cost me!
Sorry.

Both of them. I even know where they were aquired, sadly that dealer no longer lists items the way he used to.
