Draped Bust Half Dime Value Facts:
Date – Mint Rarity:
All of the dates are rare but some have lower reported mintages and thus lower survival rates-the 1802 leads the pack as the key date among regular issues and value starts at $25,000 raw and much more when certified and graded.
The 1802 is followed in rarity by the 1796/5, the 1805 and the 1800 LIBEKTY but none of the mintages reached 45,000 for any given year, so they’re all rare and valuable.
Grade-Condition:
The value on AG3 graded Draped Bust Half Dimes begins at just over $1,000 for the higher mintage dates like 1800, 1795 15 Stars, 1801, 1805, 1803 Large 8. However the value is less than $1,000 if the coin is damaged with a hole, scratches or harshly cleaned, so you can find genuine and ungraded examples a bit cheaper.
AG3 values for the lower mintage dates mentioned above can be as much as $25,000 and as less as $2,500, but in higher grades these coins no matter the mintage are worth thousands of dollars. All of the dates are worth near or over $10,000 in EF45 (Extremely Fine) or above and the 1802 is worth at least $140,000 in VF30 (Very Fine).
Varieties:
Just about every date has at least one variety and the most valuable variety is the 1797 13 Stars that starts in value at $2,000. The 1803 Large 8 is the least valuable that starts in value at $1,100. So count the stars on the 1797 and check the spelling of LIBERTY for the dates 1800 and 1796, and look for over-dates since these can effect the value of these coins.
