1897-S Barber Dime VG This 1897-S Barber Dime comes from the San Francisco Mint and carries the VG10 grade assigned by a professional service. The holder and label document that grade, giving collectors a clear, recognized standard for this turn-of-the-century issue. Charles E. Barber’s Liberty-head portrait appears on the obverse, paired with a simple wreath reverse.

The coin is struck in 90 % silver and 10 % copper, the standard composition for the series, and weighs 0.07234 troy ounces of pure silver. Date-and-mint collectors seek every Barber Dime variety, and the 1897-S remains a steady choice for completing sets. Its silver content also appeals to anyone building a 90 % silver type set.
