Lot Description

A lightly and attractively toned example with wisps of champagne-apricot iridescence that appear to drift toward the borders. Both sides also sport smooth frosty luster and a razor sharp strike. The scarcest of the three 1892-dated circulated strike issues in the Barber dime series, the 1892-S is also the third rarest San Francisco Mint date of the type in Gem Mint State after the 1895-S and 1907-S. This lovely MS-66 would do justice to the finest collection of this challenging and underrated type.
