1863 Proof Dime Pattern - J-330b

Coin Details

Description

Judd-330b completes the three-composition set for the J-330 die combination. This third metal variant is typically the scarcest of a compositional trilogy, as the Mint often produced the fewest specimens in the most experimental alloy. The existence of three distinct compositions for J-330 indicates this was considered one of the more promising design concepts in the 1863 dime series, warranting the most thorough evaluation across available planchet materials.

Rarity Notes

Rarity-7 to R-8. Typically the scarcest of the J-330 variants. Estimated 3-5 specimens known.
