    Lots o' die polish on the obverse, not sure about the full split center bands, but if the slab insert says so...GREAT!

    I've been starting to look at dimes more seriously now, and I completely blame you Dimeman! >:) if I get sidetracked from Jeffersons, I'll mail you some bent dimes o:)
    Nice coin.
    Am I alone in thinking that S is most definitely a "boy"?!

    Sorry man....I don't want you to get sidetracked from your Nickels. I started dabbling in Nickels and got spread too thin and had to sell the Nickels off to buy a Dime.

    Ha, no worries. I'm just playing. I do like some of the dimes though.
    Did you sell all the nickels to buy one dime?

    Yes, all the Nickels worth something went for one Capped Bust scarce die marriage....the 1820 JR12.
