📖 Description
Offered here is an 1888-S Liberty Seated Dime certified by PCGS in AG03 condition. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this example represents the later years of the Liberty Seated series, a key component of 19th-century United States coinage.
The obverse depicts Liberty seated, holding a shield and pole, symbolizing strength and national preparedness. Despite extensive circulation wear, the primary design elements and date remain visible. The reverse features the denomination “ONE DIME” within a wreath, a classic and recognizable design used throughout the series.
This coin was struck in silver with a standard weight of approximately 2.50 grams and a diameter of 17.9 mm. It features a reeded edge and coin alignment typical of the issue. The “S” mintmark beneath the wreath confirms production at the San Francisco Mint, adding regional historical context.
Encapsulated in a PCGS Gold Shield holder, this coin benefits from enhanced authentication and security features. The surfaces display even, honest wear consistent with the assigned grade, with a natural circulated appearance.
