Description

1892 Barber Dime. Proof-67 (PCGS).
Vivid undertones of champagne-apricot and olive-blue backlight mottled golden-bronze, steel-gray and pinkish-mauve patina. Areas of silvery near-brilliance are also very much in evidence, especially in and around the central reverse. The first year 1892 is the highest mintage Proof Barber dime and the only one with a delivery of more than 1,000 coins (1,245 pieces, to be exact). This issue is extremely popular for type purposes, and this conditionally rare Superb Gem will please even the most discerning numismatist.
PCGS# 4875. NGC ID: 23G2.
PCGS Population: 16; with a single Proof-67+ finer in this category.
From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.

Estimate: $3000
