An exceptional opportunity to acquire a premier Proof-era classic: the 1913 Barber Dime, certified PCGS PR67+ and approved by CAC (Cert #25685742). Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this issue represents the final years of Charles E. Barber’s iconic dime design and stands as one of the most admired 20th-century Proof type coins for collectors who value originality, precision, and historic elegance.
"Why this 1913 Barber Dime stands out"
Rare Proof-quality preservation: Graded PR67+ by PCGS, placing this coin firmly in the upper echelon of surviving Proof Barber dimes, with razor-sharp definition in Liberty’s portrait and the wreath on the reverse.
CAC verified quality: The green CAC endorsement confirms premium quality for the grade, with strong eye appeal and technical merit that seasoned collectors actively seek.
Philadelphia Mint Proof heritage: As the primary source of Proof coinage in this era, Philadelphia issues carry classic U.S. minting pedigree and enduring demand across type, date, and registry-focused collections.
Striking visual appeal: Expect deeply mirrored fields and crisp, frosted design elements typical of top-tier Proof Barber coinage, often complemented by attractive natural toning ranging from soft silver brilliance to subtle champagne, violet, or blue-gray highlights depending on lighting.
"Historical and collecting significance"
Issued in 1913, this dime belongs to a transformative period in U.S. coinage, just a few years before the Barber series gave way to the more modern artistic designs of the mid-1910s. Proof Barber dimes are especially collectible because they were struck in very limited quantities for collectors of the time, making high-grade survivors a compelling blend of scarcity, history, and beauty. This piece is ideal as a cornerstone for a Barber dime set, a 20th-century Proof type set, or a high-end U.S. silver coin collection.
