Unfamiliar attribution on an NGC slab for a Barber dime

CaseyCasey Posts: 1,502 ✭✭
I have an 1893 S/S dime in AU50. The slab indicates "FS-009". Does anyone know what that refers to?

Thanks,
Casey

    I'm guessing that means it's the S/S variety in the CP guide.

    They should be using Lawrence designations for Barber varieties since he wrote the book.

    Yust my opinion.

    "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron."
