Description & Analysis

Well over a million dimes were coined during 1827. While a small portion of this total is believed to have comprised pieces dated 1825, there is no denying that the 1827 dime is a fairly common issue. Nine obverse dies were paired with 10 reverses to create a total of 14 die marriages. Two of these feature the flat-topped numeral 1 in the value, a characteristic of earlier dates. Also included is one variety displaying a prominently repunched 7. Common varieties include JR-1, -3, -4, -6, -11 and -12. JR-5, -7, -8 and -13 are somewhat scarce, while JR-2 and JR-9 are very scarce. The rarest varieties of all are JR-10 and JR-14, the latter not known when the John Reich book was published. The supply of Mint State coins is generous for an early dime, though gems are quite scarce.

1827 Dime Value

According to the NGC Price Guide, as of January 2025, a Dime from 1827 in circulated condition is worth between $30 and $1200. However, on the open market 1827 Dimes in pristine, uncirculated condition sell for as much as $57500.
