<B>1835 10C PR63 PCGS.</B></I> JR-4, R.2 for the variety, R.7 as a proof. Breen's <I>Proof Encyclopedia </B></I>aptly describes this variety: "Wide date, 'horned' 8, recut 3, high 5, UN even but too high. Tall 0 in 10 C." Stars 1 and 10 touch denticles at the border. The D ending UNITED is noticeably lower than the rest of the word. The mintage of this early dime issue is unknown, but minuscule by any measure. Some sources estimate the entire mintage at only 10 pieces, although that figure seems on the low side. This piece offers smoke-gray and aqua patina over surfaces that show considerable cameo contrast. Population: 3 in 63, 7 finer (6/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> John Reich<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>\)
