People Are Walking Around With Dimes Worth $2,000,000 In Their Pockets. Here’s What To Look For
The dime you are looking for was minted back in 1894. It is known as the 1894-S Barber Dime. And it is worth a lot more than the ten cents listed as face value. It is worth close to two million.
The Barber Dime isn’t just worth a lot, it has a million-dollar history too. Back in 1894, John Daggett, the San Francisco Mint superintendent decided to create 24 special dimes. He gave his seven best friends three of these coins and the last three went to his youngest daughter. While he told his daughter to save the coins until she was older, she didn’t listen to her daddy. He was always telling her what to do so she got a little defiant and went out and bought some ice cream with one of the dimes.
Only about nine 1894-S Barber Dimes are still in existence to this day. And two of them are rumored to be in circulation just waiting to be discover.
