Ex. D.L. Hanson Collection. Very rare variety 1829 10C Small/Large 10C, JR-9.  The 1829 Capped Bust dime offers a window into the transitional die work of the early Philadelphia Mint. This example represents the rare JR-9 variety, known for the distinctive Small 10C overpunched with a Large 10C on the reverse denomination. Such reworking reflects the practical realities of early die preparation, when engravers modified existing punches rather than discarding partially completed dies.

Graded XF-40 by the Professional Coin Grading Service, this piece shows the moderate circulation expected of a lightly worn early dime while retaining strong central detail in Liberty’s cap and the eagle’s shield. PCGS has certified only 17 examples of the JR-9 variety, with three graded at XF-40 and just nine finer, underscoring its scarcity within the already challenging 1829 Capped Bust dime series.

This specimen carries the added distinction of provenance to the D. L. Hanson Collection, one of the most carefully assembled cabinets of early United States coinage. Its combination of notable pedigree, appealing preservation, and a rare overpunched denomination variety makes it an especially desirable representative of the 1829 Capped Bust dime.
