Lot Description

1901-S Barber Dime. MS-66 (NGC). Warm reddish-apricot iridescence is seen toward the borders. Both sides have a smooth and satiny texture throughout and the strike is razor sharp to full. After only the 1898-S (and, of course, the famous 1894-S), the low mintage (593,022 pieces) 1901-S is the rarest San Francisco Mint Barber dime in Mint State. This Condition Census Gem is sure to appeal to advanced collectors. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. NGC Census: 4; with a single MS-68 finer. PCGS# 4826. NGC ID: 23EH.
