I was looking at this dime, but I didn't find this overdated variant for the date 1801/2. Please someone help me. Best estimate of price.
Thank you

Greetings.   Unfortunately, that's a counterfeit.  There are way too many arrows in the eagle's left talon on the reverse side of your coin.  Also, that's not the Draped Bust Dime.  That's actually someone's (attempt) to counterfeit the Draped Bust Half Dime.  People always confuse the two.  The Draped Bust Half Dime is worth way more, so of course counterfeiters always target that one.

 

The way you can tell the difference between the Draped Bust Dime and the Draped Bust Half Dime is to look at the terminal ends of the arrows in the eagle's left talon on the Reverse side.  On the Draped Bust Dime, the arrows all end at the same point of termination.  For the Draped Bust Half Dime, the terminal lengths of the arrows are all different.

You may want to see if a magnet sticks to your coin.  A magnet shouldn't stick to a 90% silver coin.  Also, there are no known instances of an overdate issue for the 1802 Bust Half Dime.

Thank you. At least I see that it's always better to ask

And can't it be a Draped Bust Dollar? There is an overdate of 1801/2.

Thank you very much.

Yes, you may want to measure the diameter.  If it's large enough, that would look more like the Draped Bust Dollar:

39,5 mm a 26,75 g

Yep, that looks good for the Draped Bust dollar coin.

Yes, it's her. Unfortunately, her grade is about 35.

It's a very nice coin!

You certainly wanted to say 1802/1, because that's what is on the round piece of metal😬
