Description

1898-O Dime, MS65
Well Struck With Rich, Variegated Toning

1898-O 10C MS65 PCGS. This issue is difficult to locate in Mint State despite the 2.1 million-piece mintage. Additionally, it is one of the more poorly struck issues in the Barber dime series. This Gem offering is exceptional for its above-average strike, including LIBERTY and upper right part of the wreath, areas typically weak. Only the lower left set of leaves reveal minor softness. Each side exudes pleasing luster and a delicate blend of apple-green, purple, and gray patina. Faint contacts are noted on the neck and light roller marks on the cheek. Population: 9 in 65, 5 finer (11/10).(Registry values: N2998)
