Choice Cameo Proof 1829 Dime
The Clapp-Eliasberg Specimen 1829 Dime Small 10C. JR-4. Rarity-2, Rarity-8 as Proof. Proof-64 CAM NGC. A dusting of pale champagne-gold iridescence engages both sides of this sharply rendered near-gem Proof dime. The devices are frosty in nature, and the fields enjoy a richly mirrored quality. Possibly unique in Proof, at least for the JR-4 die pairing; there are two or three Proofs known from the JR-7 die pairing of the date. Choice for the grade with a pedigree chain that stretches back over 100 years. This is where the specialists will cast their bids!
From Bowers and Merena’s sale of the Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. Collection, Part I, May, 1996, lot 1085; likely from S. Hudson Chapman’s sale of the Richard Ashhurst Collection, May, 1908; John H. Clapp; Clapp Estate; Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr.
