No stars seated liberties

I've wanted one of these coins forever and came close to buying one a couple times in the past, but they've never fit into any set I was working on. But now I'm about finished all my ongoing sets, so I'm happy to say that this one arrived yesterday and is now mine. :smiley: Please share your examples!

    That is something I don't have for my type set. Yours is an outstanding example!

    NGC graded this one MS-66. I agree with them although some might not like the toning. Some people call this piece, "The baby Gobrect."


    I have found the No Stars Dime to be much scarcer than the half dime. I have never upgraded this one since I bought it many years ago. It is an AU. I read somewhere that there is supposed to be a hoard of these, and that they are easy to find. I have yet to run into that hoard.

    When I finished my type set the first time around, which excluded the extreme rarities in the early 1980s, that was last coin I needed. I gave my want list to local dealer who when to the Baltimore show on a regular basis. (This was when I had a "normal job.") He come back saying, "That coin is harder to find than I thought it was."

    PCGS MS64. It's held back by a light staple scratch in the left obverse field that's visible at some angles. The dealer's photo shows it better:

    Really nice job on the animation. I definitely want to try that on my 1837 H10c, which looks flat in my image, but in hand has very nice luster.

    I used to have the H10C and 10C No Stars versions, but needed to sell. Your 1837 H10C Large Date RPD is a beauty @zrlevin !
