Nice "little" set. Their real value is only as a conversation piece.

The dime of course. Top pop or not. Jefferson isn't worth that much to me - unless I am the one selling it

Coin looks dead.

AU53. I would say it appears to have been cleaned at some point. I am not certain if it would have gotten a details label or considered market acceptable.

Yes a type is not to hard to complete - except price is a huge factor as you noted. My advice for you: Patience young padawan.

A full set is what I infer the OP is going to try. Not so easy to complete.

It should be a long term project for sure due to the fact some date/mm will only appear very rarely. I have been collecting the seated half dime series for some time in raw and moved to building a slabbed XF-AU set and it is a slow go with some holes in each set that I may not get filled for years. I do not find building a set fast to give any satisfaction. So the long game fits well with the half dime series.

And as mentioned get some books before you start.


Good luck and enjoy.
