Lot Description

A richly original specimen, both sides are splashed with multiple vivid colors that leave areas of silvery brilliance at central reverse. Direct viewing angles also allow ready appreciation of mirrored reflectivity in the fields, the design elements fully struck with a soft satin texture. The 1897 (731 coins produced) is one of the scarcest Proof Barber dimes from the 1890s. The coin offered here makes a lovely impression in all regards and represents a fleeting bidding opportunity for the astute collector.
