    I sold these on ebay about 15 years ago. Have always wondered if I messed up and sold something special.

    1831 JR-1, R1
    1833 JR-5, R1
    1834 JR-2, R5*
    1835 JR-1, R1
    1836 JR-1, R3

    *an internet search shows that this one has been downgraded to R3 since the Early United States Dimes book came out in 1984, so hopefully you won’t lose much sleep over it!

    On the 1827 there is a rare flat top 1, yours is pointed.
    And on the 1829 there is a super valuable curl base 2. Yours seems square.

    Was unaware of these varieties, they are interesting to say the least.
    Maybe I can get lucky in a junk box. LOL
