CT Dime Type Set on Display

Let’s assemble a dime type set made up of photos from fellow CT members. Pick one of the following major dime types (or add one I may have overlooked) and post your picture. We only need one of each so if a type is already posted, then please post a different type dime. Only one rule: The grade must be between 1 and 70.

Draped Bust Small Eagle
Draped Bust Heraldic Eagle
Capped Bust 1809 – 1828 Wide Boarder
Capped Bust 1828 – 1837 Beaded Boarder
Lib. Seated No Stars
Lib. Seated Stars Obverse
Lib. Seated 53-55 Arrows
Lib. Seated Legend Obverse
Lib. Seated 73-74 Arrows
Barber
Mercury
Roosevelt Silver mm on reverse
Roosevelt Clad 1965 - 1967
Roosevelt Clad mm on obverse

I’ll begin the dime type set by posting my 1831 Capped Bust. This was originally a TPG AU coin which resides in my Dansco type album today. Please post your dimes!

oh man! Great Idea for a thread!

 

I look forward to seeing your posted dime picture!

 

nah, none from me.. maybe a canadian dime.. heck I could post a ton of those.

 

This is a great idea!! unfortunately, I only have a barber dime and a mercury dime, both in low grades...I'd rather see some nice ones posted than put my pics up

 

A super idea, but I need to make some photos. might take a little while.

 

Not quite as nice as yours, nor is it as nice as the eliasberg coin that was posted here.

 

I'm just starting the process of re-imaging parts of my collection.
Because of the number of images I'm posting, I am doing links instead.
Some of what you see could probably be done better, but here goes:

Oops, found one more.
The OP already did the Capped Bust 1828 – 1837 Beaded Border.

Here's the Capped Bust 1809 – 1828 Wide Border.
It's the oldest dime I have.

Anyone have a small or heraldic eagle?

This is the early bust dime posted by Kanga. Can any CT people post an earlier dime with either the small or heraldic eagle?

That '31 dime is beautiful , really looks nicer than 99% of the AU coins I've seen .

Hello zrage,
Post one of the dimes needed for this type set. It will be good for your Karma.

Here is a nice Barber dime. I wonder is any of our CT folk have one of the real early Draped Bust dimes to post.
