 Obverse 6: Medium Level Date

Reverse C: Small CC, [mm Rt,L], No Die Cracks

Collar: 113 Reeds

        

Obverse 6                                                Reverse C

 

        

Comments: Obverse 6 features a medium level date with bold date digits and already exhibits metal flows to the right of Liberty due to previous usage. The CC mintmarks on Reverse C are level and close. Reverse C initially shows no detectable die cracks during the Variety 107 listing. This die pairing will strike a significant number of dimes with Reverse C being utilized until it is fully cracked. See Varieties 107a and 107b for illustrations of the the ongoing degradation of the reverse die. Variety 107 with Reverse C in an early die state and exhibiting no die cracks is considerably scarcer than its later cracked die reverse counterparts.

Previous/Subsequent Die Pairings - In Wreath Obverse 6

While in an early die state, Obverse 6 was initially paired with BW Reverse B. During that pairing, the obverse die is labeled as BW Obverse 8. After the pairing with Reverse C, Obverse 6 will continued to be used and paired with another In Wreath reverse die (Variety 108 - Reverse D) for additional strikings.

Previous/Subsequent Die Pairings - In Wreath Reverse C

Reverse C is only known to be paired with Obverse 6 at this time.
