Bright 1912-S Barber Dime, MS67
Ex: Duckor

1912-S 10C MS67 NGC. Ex: Duckor. While the 1912-S is not an issue that immediately springs to mind at the forefront of Barber dime rarities, at the Superb Gem level examples are seldom seen. The marvelous John C. Hugon Collection (Heritage, 1/2005, lot 4066) contained "only" an MS66 example of the issue. The present piece is brilliant silver-white, remarkably bright throughout with semiprooflike fields. Both sides show a few scattered dark speckles of color, but magnification is required to discern them. A near-flawless coin, perfect for a type, date, or complete Registry Set. Census: 1 in 67, 0 finer (2/09). (One MS67 Prooflike is certified at NGC.)
From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
