BUST DIMES

Early and Bust dimes are one of our specialties.  We have an 1802 in VF in a rare die state, a few dates from 1798 to 1803 in low grades, several 1809's, an 1814 STATESOFAMERICA in PCGS AU-58! plus others for both 1814 and 1820, 1821 JR-2 and JR-3, 1822, 1824/2, 1828 Large Date, 1833 JR-7, 1834 JR-3, some sets of cuds in varying die states, and some high-grade PCGS coins.  We are especially pleased to have some lower grade examples of R-3 thru R-6 varieties for collectors with a budget.  Please take the opportunity to select from multiples of many of the rare varieties.  We would like to acquire dimes such as 1804, 1809, 1822, and any R-6 or rarer varieties.

Image Description Price
1798/7 Dime, 16 stars, JR-1, R3, Fr-2 obv. / VG-10 rev.  Only the 8 is visible in the date, but that is enough to tell that the coin is an 1798/7.  The reverse is always stronger than the obverse on this variety. $299 was 349
Quantity:
1801 Dime, JR-1 R-4, AG-3 obv. / AG-3+ rev., full date.        LOWERED PRICE           $650 was 725
Quantity:
1802 Dime, JR-4 R-4, VLDS with obverse retained cud over star 7 and LIBE(RTY), Fine with some scratches.  Very rare die state; according to Price there are less than 10 known with the die crack and the Price coin had the die crack but it had not progressed to the retained cud state.              $5,000 was 7500
Quantity:
1802 Dime, JR-4 R4, F-12, an old cleaning, a few pinscratches.  A bit expensive because it is very difficult to find one that is relatively problem-free.                $3,950

If you have any nice 1809 dimes for sale, please ask for my very high offer!  I believe I have sold more 1809 dimes since the beginning of 2009 (12) than anyone else, including any auction house!

So how did I get 21 1809 dimes (12 sold + 9 in stock)?  Is it likely that I bought all of them at Greysheet bid or less?  Or is it much more likely that I paid close to market value at the time?  If the market value is way over Bid, anyone selling such coins will usually seek out the highest buyer, not the person only willing to pay Bid.

Pricing of 1809 dimes:  My price for an 1809 dime (or any other coin) is determined by what I think the coin is worth in the market.  I sold a PCGS F-12 1809 dime earlier this year for around $1,500.  The buyer sold it for around $2,000.  The same coin subsequently went on sale for $2,500.  If you are looking for a PCGS F-12 1809 dime for the $600 quoted in the PCGS Price Guide, how likely is that to happen?
