Light silver surfaces with considerable lustre accented by peripheral blue and amber toning. Several AU examples are listed in the Dime Census. This variety is actually available in all grades, including Mint State. A single Proof was recorded in the Dime Book. This is the first obverse use before JR-5 and the only reverse die use. Perfect obverse. The reverse has a very faint die crack from border to upper right curve of D. Purchased at the 1982 ANA Convention in Boston, Massachusetts. |
