1893-S Barber Dime, MS65
Sharply Defined and Beautifully Toned

1893-S 10C MS65 PCGS. The 1892-S and 1893-S are two of the early S-mint semikeys in the popular Barber dime series. While in MS65 the 1893-S edges out the 1892-S in terms of price, in finer grades the pricing equation is reversed. The present Gem offers stunning patination of pastel cherry, ice-blue, and olive on the obverse, with aqua and steel-blue on the reverse. The strike is sharp throughout, and the piece is certified in a old green-label holder. Population: 20 in 65, 6 finer (10/10).(Registry values: N2998)
