Subdued lustre is visible beneath grayish brown and pewter surfaces. Splashes of gold are noted on the obverse. Both surfaces are lightly abraded. A scarce variety, however, available in all grades through Mint State. This example is the finest listed in the Dime Census.

The only obverse die use and the second use of the reverse after 1835 JR-8 and before 1837 JR-1.

Both obverse and reverse have clash marks. Otherwise perfect obverse. The reverse has a short crack from left wing tip to border and from bottom left serif of D to top of scroll.

From the November 1990 MSNS sale, Lot 1129.
