- Seldom Offered Premium Gem 1894-O Dime 1894-O Barber Dime. MS-66 (PCGS). CAC. This impressive condition rarity from the early Barber dime series is very well produced for a New Orleans Mint coin of this type. The striking detail on both sides is actually very close to full. The surfaces are fully lustrous with a smooth, softly frosted finish. Original toning features a blend of rich olive-gray, powder blue, salmon pink and champagne-gold and adds to the appeal of this highly desirable coin. The 1894-O has a low mintage (720,000) that, like most New Orleans Mint Barber coins, suffered a high rate of attrition through circulation. It is the second rarest Barber dime from this mint in terms of total number of Mint State examples known, and it is actually the rarest in MS-65 and higher grades, surpassing even the more highly regarded 1895-O. (These rankings are per Jeff Ambio in his 2009 book Collecting & Investing Strategies for Barber Dimes.) A highlight of the Larry H. Miller Barber dime set, and a perfect choice for another highly regarded cabinet. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS Population: 7; 5 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 4804.
