Lot Description

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-65 would do justice to an advanced collection of this challenging and underrated type. It is sharply struck and lightly toned in champagne-apricot over highly lustrous, frosty to semi-reflective surfaces.
