- 1899-S Barber Dime. MS-65 (NGC).
Lustrous frosty surfaces are mostly brilliant with a few blushes of pale champagne-pink iridescence. The strike is full, and the eye appeal is exceptional. After only the 1893-S, the 1899-S is the most available San Francisco Mint Barber dime from the 1890s. This may seem odd for an issue that saw much of the mintage shipped to the Philippine Islands for commercial use. Obviously a greater number of coins were preserved stateside than for, say, the 1898-S, another of the so-called "Philippine dates" in the Barber dime series. The 1899-S is still conditionally challenging and Gems such as this are rare.
Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection.
NGC Census: 4; 3 finer (MS-67 finest).
PCGS# 4820. NGC ID: 23EB.
