1853
With Arrows - Hubbed Date and Arrows
Variety 104a
Obverse 4: Lightly Clashed Die
Reverse D.2: Shattered Die, Internal Cud From Right Ribbon To (UNI)TED

Obverse 4 Reverse D
Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Comments: This is the most spectacular die variety seen to date for an 1853 With Arrows dime. Obverse 4 continues to show no signs of die cracks while Reverse D is completely shattered. An internal cud has formed over the letters U(NI)TED down through the lower left wreath and into the bow knot and ribbon ends. All 1853 With Arrows dimes with retained cuds are considered rare and should command a premium.
