[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 7989775, member: 19250"][ATTACH=full]1386378[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1386379[/ATTACH] Ok this 1838 half dime is another rare find....now the date its self 2,225,000 mintage you can see are quite plentiful....or not! I aquired this one back in July 21. They can be found from mint state -down to a good grade. Now anyone want to take an educated guess as to why this specimen is rare? The specimen was graded straight. So there is nothing to do with the coins surfaces or skin. My references that are dated put this coin in a R- 3 rarity, however I will up that by 1 to an R -4 as the reference is 30 +/- years old. And the variety surveys show only 18 specimens reported. There's more but I do not want to give away whats actually going on with this particular 1838 half dime. [USER=123808]@Wade Elliott[/USER] [USER=105571]@Publius2[/USER][/QUOTE]
