Lot Description

Rarer than the lower mintage 1897-O, the 1898-O is actually the most challenging New Orleans Mint Barber dime to locate in Mint State after only the 1894-O, 1895-O and 1896-O. Offered is a pleasing Select example whose otherwise brilliant surfaces exhibit a crescent of iridescent champagne-apricot toning along the lower reverse border. Satin to softly frosted in texture with a strike that is bold to sharp in virtually all areas.
