Elusive Gem 1898-O Dime

1898-O 10C MS65 PCGS. CAC. Even though the 1898-O mintage is more than 2 million pieces--the 1894-O through 1897-O issues all saw emissions under 1 million--it nonetheless continues the string as an elusive and rare O-mint coin in the higher Mint State grades. This piece displays good eye appeal, with silver-gray surfaces tinged with a bit of steel-gray on both sides, and a relative lack of distractions. The strike is soft on the upper headband and the E of DIME. Seldom seen finer. Population: 6 in 65, 6 finer (1/08).
