Description du lot

1907-O Barber Dime. MS-65 (PCGS). A satiny, boldly struck example with pretty champagne-apricot iridescence ringing the peripheries. The mintage for the 1907-O dime was 5,058,000 pieces, curiously generous for a late date New Orleans Mint issue. With the Denver Mint assuming more responsibility for providing circulating coinage in the Western United States, we suspect that many examples of the 1907-O were not needed in commerce, contributing to the relatively large number of Mint State survivors known. The present example, conditionally scarce as a Gem, would do particularly well in a mintmarked type set. PCGS# 4844. NGC ID: 23F5. PCGS Population: 20; 18 finer (MS-67 finest). Provenance: From the Frog Run Farm Collection.
