About This Set:
I've always liked early dimes and thought I would slowly try to assemble a more complete PCGS registry set. Perhaps a 1827/7 should be added to this challenging set next.

Your dime set is fabulous and your quest for know in the early US coinage is a wonderful to the hobby. I am glad to call you a friend and co-author! BTW- Your set is clearly the greatest Capped Bust Dime set ever put together.
Thanks so much to the fabulous Mr. DQ for the opportunity to obtain some fantastic coins from his historic set. The passion and dedication and scholarship of your set was unsurpassed.
Learned so much from my friend Easton about the wonder of this under appreciated series. The dime really represents the core of our American decimal system as proposed by Thomas Jefferson in 1784. Capped Bust Dimes in near gem, gem and superb gem are much more difficult to obtain than the ever popular Capped Bust Halves. Many redbook varities are prohibitively rare in uncirculated grades. A smaller but intensely enthusiastic band of collectors are building amazing sets of a consistent quality never achieved by the Elisaberg, Norweb, Pittman and Garret era.
