Expert Comments

Jaime Hernandez

Barber Dimes with mintages under 1 million are usually some of the scarcer dates. The 1892-O has a mintage of about 3.8 million, therefore, it is definitely not the lowest mintage and at the same time it is far from being the most common. However, it is scarce in Uncirculated condition, especially in MS65 and higher. In MS66 it is very scarce and in MS67 or higher it is considered rare.
