    This coin was in my Barber dime book. I think I will buy another 1901-S. Do you see an S on this coin? IMG_0088.JPG IMG_0088 (2).JPG Sorry about the pic it is the best I can do.

    1901-S is a semi-key. There are a lot of semi-keys in the Barber dime book.

    Actually in the pic of my coin I see a light "s". I think I will just keep it in the book. The book came with some coins and this is one of them.

    I know. I wouldn't buy it. Some people will buy a coin they need.

    I saw one that has the "S" distinct. It was sold by a seller I bought from before. He told me that he was getting Barber dimes.

    I will only buy a coin in a graded slab or a case.
