Description
1892-S Barber Dime, MS66
Conditionally Rare Issue
1892-S 10C MS66 PCGS. In the first year of Barber's Liberty
Head dime, production of the denomination at the San Francisco Mint
dipped below 1 million coins, a significantly smaller mintage than
was accomplished at the Philadelphia and New Orleans facilities. As
a result, the San Francisco issue of this year is the scarcest of
the three 1892 issues in virtually all grades, though the contrast
is especially prevalent at the MS66 grade level; PCGS has certified
some 91 examples of the Philadelphia issue in this grade (4 in 66+)
and 21 finer, 10 examples of the New Orleans issue (3 in 66+) and
one finer, but only four representatives of the San Francisco issue
(1 in 66+), this time with none finer (11/14).The connoisseur will find much to love about this coin; the frosty luster attractively illuminates soft lavender, gold, and aquamarine hues on each side, while the strike is boldly executed.(Registry values: N2998)
