1895-O Barber Dime. PCGS AU Details, Environmental damage. Consigned to us amidst a random grouping of lesser coins from an old collection, this wholly original specimen was submitted only once for third party grading and certainly warrants serious consideration by all interested buyers. Though the color is a rather deep lavender-grey, we are not at all convinced that this entirely honest coin does not deserve an unqualified numerical grade, and thus is an excellent candidate for resubmission. A degree of underlying mint frost complemented by plenty of detail distinguishes this specimen from the overwhelming majority of the surviving population of this very scarce date.
