<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CappedBustDimes, post: 1043644, member: 9104&quot;]Looks legit to me...altered surfaces/cleaning.&nbsp; Still a great looking coin when compared to most of the surviving 22s.&nbsp; I think the description does a pretty good job of explaining the surface issues:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Very rare 1822 JR-1 Capped Bust dime has nice and strong vf+ details, though there is an obverse repair evident.&nbsp; It appears that a small amount of metal was added to cover a dig or some similar damage in the hair and at RTY, and that area was re-engraved.&nbsp; There is no evidence of any repair on the reverse.&nbsp; The coin appears quite original in all other respects, and is very attractive even considering the repair.&nbsp; And, 1822 dimes in VF just don&#039;t come along every day.&nbsp; They&#039;re hard enough to find in AG! &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Dave Kahn who also sells as busthalfnut, is very reliable and knowledgeable. I have bought many coins from him and I don&#039;t doubt his or this coin&#039;s integrity.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dave has a strong following of repeat customers...this will be an interesting auction![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
