FSH (+ eBay): 1905-O Barber Dime micro-O PCGS AU Details

seanq

1905-O Barber Dime, micro O variety, recently graded at PCGS as having AU details due to cleaning. The coin was likely dipped at some point, and has a slightly washed out appearance with traces of luster remaining. An "UNC details" grade would not have surprised me as the coin has very little wear and doesn't show much evidence of handling at all. There are a couple of minor rim nicks visible in the pre-certification photos which do not detract from the appearance.

This is a really tough variety to find in grades above Fine, PCGS has certified only 25 examples in AU (7 in AU58) and another 7 in mint state grades. It is also the only variety for the series required in the PCGS Registry.

I will sell the coin here for $399 postpaid. Please note that this coin is going to be listed over the weekend on eBay at a slightly higher Buy It Now cost than my asking price here, and is thus subject to prior sale.

I am happy to answer any questions. I have sold many coins through the BST and on eBay, though not many recently. I think enough folks are still around who can vouch for me that references can be supplied if requested.

Thanks for looking,

Sean Reynolds
