- 1902-S Barber Dime. MS-66 (NGC).
A glorious premium Gem Mint State dime with delicate champagne-gold iridescence enhancing frosty mint luster. A relatively generous mintage of 2,070,000 pieces conceals the rarity of the 1902-S in high grades. This is the fourth rarest San Francisco Mint Barber dime in Mint State (per your cataloger, JLA, 2009), and it handily outdistances the lower mintage 1904-S, 1909-S, 1913-S and 1915-S, as well as the 1895, 1896, 1897-O, 1907-D and 1909-D. In grades of MS-65 and higher, Q. David Bowers (2019) describes the 1902-S as, "One of the rarer issues of the era, yet another numismatic surprise."
Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. Earlier ex Heritage's Long Beach Signature Sale of June 2000, lot 7156.
NGC Census: 3; 3 finer (MS-67 finest).
PCGS# 4829. NGC ID: 23EL.
