1898-S Barber Dime Good
Struck in 90 percent silver at the San Francisco Mint, this 1898 ten-cent piece represents a classic era of United States coinage. The coin contains 0.0715 troy ounces of pure silver, carrying the wear and character of a piece graded in Good condition. The obverse presents a profile of Lady Liberty, who wears a laurel wreath atop her head along with a Phrygian cap. The legend reading UNITED STATES OF AMERICA surrounds her portrait, with the year 1898 positioned at the bottom. On the reverse, a detailed wreath frames the central denomination. The words ONE DIME are clearly showcased within this wreath, while the S mint mark below indicates its origin from the West Coast minting facility.
