Description
1911 Barber Dime, MS67
Well-Struck and Virtually Pristine
1911 10C MS67 PCGS. This Superb Gem 1911 Barber dime is
highly lustrous with splendid cartwheel effects that are unusual
for the type, and light sprays of dappled apricot-tan patina on the
otherwise pale olive-gold surfaces. The surfaces are well-struck
and virtually mark-free.Population Data (7/14): PCGS reports 15 in MS67 (including one in MS67+) with two finer. NGC shows 11 MS67 (including one MS67 ★ ) and two finer in MS68 ★ .
Heritage Commentary: The number of examples from this issue that are graded at or above MS67 may seem high; but it should be considered in light of the high original mintage of nearly 19 million coins, which helps put in perspective that a few dozen examples survive in such high grades. In the broader context of U.S. numismatics, this issue is actually rare at the MS67 level of preservation, with 26 coins so graded.
