1898-O Barber Dime. MS-66 (CACG).
A lustrous and attractive original Gem. Satiny surfaces are dressed in a mixture of light pewter-gray with blushes of reddish-russet and steel-olive in isolated peripheral areas. Nearly flawless and very attractive, a truly significant find for advanced collectors. Barber dime production at the New Orleans Mint ratcheted up considerably in 1898 with a total of 2,130,000 coins struck. Even so, this is a challenging issue to collect that is quite underrated in Mint State. The 1898-O is actually rarer in high grades than the lower mintage 1897-O, 1903-S, 1904-S, 1913-S and 1915-S. It becomes scare in MS-64 and very rare above MS-65.
PCGS# 4816. NGC ID: 23E7.

Estimate: $5000
