Lot 226
1807, JR-1, R-2. PCGS graded MS-64. A very flashy coin that has blazing luster in the fields and is totally white. The devices are sharp at the centers, but the stars show the ever present weakness from the heavy die clashing seen on most examples of this date. On the lower left reverse rim we note adjustment marks which weaken the UN of UNITED. Perfect for the type collector who demands top notch quality for their collection. PCGS has graded 21 this high, with a scant 8 a notch higher and a single coin at the top as MS-66.
Estimated Value $10,000-12,000.

Lot 227
1807, JR-1, R-2. PCGS graded MS-63. This is a scarce early die state of this common variety, with just faint clash marks from the shield near Liberty's ear. Normally, 1807 dimes come clashed to oblivion, and are coins only the most advanced numismatists can appreciate. Not so here, the surfaces, light gold toning and strike all add up to a classic example of this draped bust dime. Identifiable by a small mark on Liberty's forehead.
Estimated Value $6,500-7,500.
