1805 Draped Bust Dime. JR-2. Rarity-2. 4 Berries. MS-64 (PCGS). Smooth, satiny surfaces reveal no outwardly noticeable or otherwise readily evident abrasions. The overall appearance is close to full Gem quality, in fact, and the grade returned by PCGS may very well have been MS-65 were the surfaces a bit more vibrant in the luster category. Faint planchet striations or adjustment marks over Liberty's portrait are so faint as to be hardly discernible, and an equally faint clashmark in the field above the bust is also as struck. Boldly struck from the dies, with a bit of light silver-apricot iridescence that appears to drift toward the borders. The present sale notwithstanding, this otherwise readily obtainable die marriage from the Draped Bust dime series can be quite elusive in the finer Mint State grades, especially from a market availability standpoint given the strong demand for such coins from advanced type collectors.
