Comments: Multiple obverse and reverse die marriages have been identified for dies used to strike both the Carson 
City In Wreath and Below Wreath varieties. I have reported obverse die pairings between In Wreath and Below Wreath 
reverse dies in this chapter.  Strike weakness is common for the head area and near the reverse rims. Rim cuds are 
encountered for both In Wreath and Below Wreath dimes. Serious assessment of the rarities of the individual Below 
Wreath varieties is a task left to another Seated dime specialist.  I have provided my best estimates of variety 
rarities but more research is needed in this area.
