1908-O Dime, Violet-Toned MS67
Among the Finest Certified

1908-O 10C MS67 NGC. CAC. Ex: Eric P. Newman Collection. The 1908-O Barber dime is available through near-Gem with a little bit of patience. However, MS65 and finer examples are rare, and in the lofty grade of MS67, NGC and PCGS combined have seen fewer than 10 specimens and none finer. Yellow-gold patina dominates the obverse, with just a touch of violet in the center. The reverse displays the same coloration, but the violet center is much more extensive and confines yellow-gold patina to the margin. The design elements are well-impressed, a typical attribute of the issue. Vibrant luster emanating from the impeccably preserved surfaces further enhances the pleasing eye appeal, aptly recognized by CAC. Census: 3 in 67, 0 finer (11/15).
