Beautiful 1894-O Barber Dime, MS66

1894-O 10C MS66 PCGS. Boldly struck throughout with complete definition on Liberty and the reverse wreath. A sparkling virtually untoned beauty that shows good luster and ample eye appeal. Scarce and desirable in this lofty grade. As one would expect, the surfaces are a delight to behold, with nary a contact mark to be found, even with a strong glass. NGC has graded a single coin higher of this date, but none as MS66, while PCGS has graded six this high with none finer (3/09). With a paltry mintage of 720,000 pieces there simply were not enough of these to save in Mint State, which accounts for the rarity of the date in Gem. A foremost condition rarity that will please even the most demanding collector, and a prize to acquire.
