1894 10C MS66+ PCGS CAC

Tough to locate and fourth rarest Philadelphia mint issue. This 1894 Barber Dime, certified PCGS MS66+ with CAC approval, stands as a Superb Gem enveloped in vibrant, original toning—its obverse framed by fiery sunset-orange, rose-gold, and indigo-violet hues, while the center remains a frosty silvery-gold, offering dramatic contrast. The reverse dazzles with target-style album toning, radiating from lavender and cobalt-blue in the central field outward into copper-orange, sea-green, and lime-gold around the periphery, suggesting stable long-term cabinet or envelope storage. The surfaces are smooth, satiny, and unabraded, with exceptional cartwheel luster and razor-sharp detail in both Liberty’s features and the agricultural wreath. Notably, PCGS has no recorded auction sales of a 66+ CAC example. No doubt in the top Condition Census. With a PCGS population of just 3 coins at MS66+ and only 3 finer, and CAC showing just 2 coins approved higher, this toned beauty represents a top-tier opportunity for advanced collectors seeking condition rarity and rich eye appeal.
