1912 10C MS67+ PCGS CAC EX HUGON-BLAY

Tied For Finest 5/0. This 1912 Barber Dime is a truly exceptional Condition Census survivor and one of the most visually captivating examples known for the date. It offers a dynamic, two-toned aesthetic, with a breathtakingly vibrant obverse complemented by a clean, mint-fresh reverse. With only five coins graded MS67+ by PCGS and none finer, this Superb Gem represents the apex of preservation for the issue. It is further distinguished by an explosive, multicolor album-toned obverse, featuring concentric hues of crimson, magenta, canary yellow, emerald, and cobalt blue radiating around Liberty’s portrait, which itself is softly frosted and framed by delicate overlays of lavender and warm gold. The reverse offers a dramatic contrast with its original brilliant mint-white surface, lightly kissed by peripheral hints of champagne and nickel-gray. Fully struck on both sides, the coin exhibits razor-sharp detail in the LIBERTY band, wreath elements, and bow, with no distractions and only a few minute carbon flecks near the lower reverse rim. This piece is a premier acquisition for collectors pursuing elite, vividly toned Barber dimes with true Registry Set pedigree.
