1903-O 10C AU58 认证号05197459, PCGS号4831

A very attractive example particularly for an O mint dime. As with the 97-S, this coin came from an old Philadelphia collection assembled mostly from the 1930's through the 1950's. This is certainly one of the whitest coins in the set, housed in an old green holder. The little toning present is uniform on both the obverse and reverse with a champagne color and underlying cartwheel luster, and a very nice strike. Total PCGS AU population is 70 with and 27 in AU 58. The BCCS rating is R3.

According to the PCGS Population Repor, the 1903-O Dime is slightly more plentiful than the 1903, but not nearly as common as the 1903-S.  Among Mint State 1903-O Dimes, collectors are most likely to encounter an MS64, though MS62 and MS63 examples are also common.  In MS66, the 1903-O Dime is a significant condition-rarity, and MS67 appears to be the highest onbtainable grade. 

The strike quality of the 1903-O is exceptional, nearly on par with the Philadelphia Mint issues, and far superior to the O-Mint products of previous decades (the horribly weak 1890-O Dollar comes to mind).  In high grades, eye appeal becomes a significant component of pricing, and beautifully toned examples will command large premiums.
