<B>1833 H10C AU58 NGC.</B></I> V-8, LM-6, R.6. Reiver State a. This near-Mint State coin is one of the finest examples of the variety in the Condition Census, just behind a couple of Mint State coins. It is sharply struck with moderate steel-gray toning. A couple of small marks and abrasions are seen on each side. This is one of the major rarities among die varieties of Capped Bust half dimes, with only 20 to 30 examples known and nine examples reported in a December 2005 <I>John Reich Journal</B></I> half dime survey. Stewart Witham first identified and described this variety in the November 1969 issue of <I>Numismatic Scrapbook.</B></I> This particular coin is identifiable by a pair of nicks in the field between the left wing and left shield tip, and another at the top of the first two pairs of vertical shield lines. A note in Jules Reiver's hand notes the variety and pedigree, along with "R. arrow shafts gone."<BR><I>Ex: The Jules Reiver Collection, Heritage FUN Signature Auction (1/2006), lot 22048; J.J.
