Lot Description

1893-S Barber Dime. MS-65 (NGC). Brilliant surfaces allow full appreciation of intense satin to softly frosted luster. Here is a fully struck, expertly preserved coin that will please even the most discerning numismatist. A heavily circulated issue from the second year of the Barber dime series, the 1893-S (2,491,401 pieces produced) is actually much rarer in Mint State than the low mintage 1913-S and 1915-S. Conditionally rare at the premium Gem grade level, the Larry H. Miller specimen represents an important bidding opportunity for the astute collector. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. NGC Census: 16; with a single MS-65+ finer. PCGS# 4802. NGC ID: 23DS. Click here for certification details from NGC.
