Description

1896-S Barber Dime, MS66 Prooflike
Incredible Eye Appeal

1896-S 10C MS66 Prooflike NGC. Beautifully patinated in peach-gold and powder-blue. Well-struck with smooth surfaces and noticeable field reflectivity. The 1896-S claims the third-lowest mintage of the series (575,956 coins), trailing only the key 1895-O and the non-collectible 1894-S. NGC reports only five Prooflike examples across all grades, including a PR62 and four PR66 coins (one PR66+). NGC has yet to grade any 1896-S dimes above MS66, with or without a Prooflike designation (12/18).
