Description
1909-S Barber Dime, MS66
Attractive Rainbow Toning
1909-S 10C MS66 PCGS. CAC. This Premium Gem is a delight to
behold. The surfaces display resplendent rainbow hues on the right
obverse and upper left reverse. Light golden-orange tones occur
elsewhere. Sharply detailed and well-preserved, this is certainly
one of the most appealing of a small group that have earned this
rarified grade.Population Data (3/15): PCGS has seen only eight examples in MS66 with one submission finer, while NGC reports three coins in MS66 and none finer.
Heritage Commentary: The 1909-S dime (1 million coins struck) is another difficult-to-find issue, particularly in higher grades. Surprisingly for the San Francisco Mint, examples are often found with poor strike characteristics, making this well-defined Premium Gem all the more desirable.
