1892-S Barber Dime, Choice Uncirculated, Original First Year Coin
An attractive Uncirculated example of the first year’s production of the series, and one that appears to be original, no less. As is common, the Obverse shows a few more marks and scuffs than the more protected Reverse, but nothing serious. If submitted for grading this should come back MS-63, if I am any judge of horseflesh. It is interesting to note that most of the certified pieces I reviewed were toned to a large degree, and none too prettily at that! Which makes it all the more interesting that I do not think that this coin has ever been dipped! As this is “in the raw” and not certified, I will offer it based upon my actual cost - PCGS is having some “hiccups” right now in late 2020, so I have resisted sending this in, however maybe later if the spirit moves me.
