Losbeschreibung

1897-S Barber Dime. MS-65 (PCGS). Satin to modestly semi-reflective surfaces are brilliant apart from the lightest iridescent gold tinting. Here is a sharply struck and very well preserved survivor from a mintage of 1,342,844 pieces. One of many underrated condition rarities in the early Barber dime series, the 1897-S is nearly as elusive in Mint State as the lower mintage 1896-S. In Gem MS-65 and higher grades, in fact, the 1897-S is the ninth rarest of 74 circulation strikes in this series. This highlight among the Barber dime offerings from the Larry H. Miller Collection would serve as a focal point in a specialized cabinet. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS Population: 14; 10 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 4814. NGC ID: 23E5.
