A very attractive, moderately toned example of the first New Orleans Mint Barber Dime issue. Saved in some reasonable quantity as an example of the first year's coinage of the new Type, which would have been refreshing after the 50 year run of the Seated Dime series! Well struck and without die chips which sometimes plague this issue. The toning is a light gray-green with red and pink undertones. Very expensive the next grade up.
