1897 Dime, Border-Toned MS68
Sole Finest of the Date at PCGS
Condition Census for All PCGS Barber Dimes

1897 10C MS68 PCGS. A simply incredible Barber dime, easily as captivating visually as it is impressive technically. Not only is this the sole finest 1897 dime at PCGS, it is one of just 10 Barber dimes at that service across the entire series in MS68, with none numerically finer (3/21). That distinction vaults it to something akin to Barber dime royalty for the Registry collector and type specialist. The centers are brilliant, while the margins display vivid amber, violet, and blue border toning. Satiny luster complements the sharp motifs, and both sides are entirely devoid of abrasions. A memorable Barber dime if there ever was one.(Registry values: N4719)
