Comments: Since I have not seen an example of an 1852 proof dime in person, there exists the possibility that both my listing of Obverse 8 and Obverse 11 are from the same obverse die. The date positions on both obverses are very similar suggesting that one die could have been used to strike both the small number of proofs and the subsequent business strikes.
