1897 10C MS68 PCGS

Pop 1/0. Single Finest. A spectacular condition rarity with blazing concentric toning, flawless preservation, and premium strike. The 1897 Barber Dime, certified PCGS MS68, stands as the sole finest example graded by PCGS, making it a definitive condition rarity in the series and a trophy piece for elite collectors. With no equals and none finer certified, its prominence is underscored by previous sales for this visual masterpiece. This coin is a masterpiece of album-style concentric toning, with the obverse radiating from midnight blue and cobalt into electric violet, burnt orange, and magenta, framed around a frosty, sharply struck Liberty. The reverse dazzles with a golden-silver center enveloped by a vivid halo of crimson, teal, and copper, enhancing the fully defined piece. Its thick luster, combined with virtually flawless, untouched surfaces, underscores its technical superiority. This example exemplifies the uppermost tier of what the series can offer—an exceptional opportunity for Registry Set competitors and connoisseurs of toned, high-grade Barber dimes.
