1895-O Barber Dime, MS65
Semiprooflike Fields
Sought-After Key Date

1895-O 10C MS65 NGC. Barber dimes present an excellent series for collectors seeking a significant challenge, but without any major stoppers. (The 1894-S can be omitted in a circulation strike set, as those coins are typically certified as proofs.) For most collectors, the big key date among Barber dimes is the 1895-O, with its limited mintage of only 440,000 pieces. Low-grade circulated pieces exist for the budget-minded collector, many of which are quite attractive for their respective grades. However, more advanced or well-heeled specialists seeking high-grade Mint State coins will find the 1895-O to be a major rarity. Only a handful of pieces are known even in Gem condition, with few finer.

This Gem is boldly struck but also exhibits distinct semiprooflike fields, with russet toning, that combine to produce outstanding eye appeal. No major distractions are seen in the luster. Census: 7 in 65, 1 finer (7/23).(Registry values: N4719)
