Top-of-the-Pop 1914 Barber Dime 1914 Barber Dime. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC. The single finest circulation strike 1914 dime known to PCGS, this is an awe-inspiring Superb Gem whose expertly preserved surfaces border on pristine. Bathed in billowy mint frost, both sides are untoned with a delightful silver-white appearance. The strike is full, and the eye appeal is nothing short of extraordinary. A late date Philadelphia Mint Barber dime with a generous mintage of 17,360,230 coins, it is little wonder that the 1914 is one of the most common issues in this series. Only the 1892, 1911, 1912 and 1916 are more plentiful in terms of total number of Mint State coins known. In high grades (read: MS-65 and finer), the list of more common Barber dimes dwindles to just two issues: the first year 1892 and the 1911. The 1914 is certainly easy to obtain in grades up to and including MS-65. Premium quality Gems in MS-66, while not really common in an absolute sense, are still plentiful by the standards of the type. Very few MS-67s have been certified by PCGS and NGC, however, and the present example is the only coin graded finer at the former service. (NGC also reports a single MS-67+ at the top of their Census.) The nicest 1914 dime that your cataloger (JLA) has ever had the privilege of describing for auction, this coin is highly recommended for inclusion in a world class type set or specialized collection of Barber coinage.
