Description

1896-O Dime, MS66+
Key Date in the Series
Tied for Finest at PCGS

1896-O 10C MS66+ PCGS. CAC. Lightly toned surfaces feature lilac and pearl-gray centers with peripheral green, blue, and yellow elements. The strike is sharp, aside from a touch of softness on Liberty's forecurls and the lower-left wreath leaves. All Barber coins struck at the New Orleans Mint in 1896 are considered top rarities in their respective series and the issue is highly coveted by collectors across all grade levels. High-end pieces like the one offered here sustain the strongest demand. This exceptional representative -- among the finest at PCGS -- should command significant attention when it crosses the block. PCGS Population: 8 in 66 (3 in 66+), 0 finer. CAC: 6 in 66, 0 finer (1/26).
