Would you tell the dealer that you pulled this out of the junk bin? Just for conversations sake, or just leave it?

I'd just be a loyal repeat customer and continue to check the bulk silver for more choice picks. No reason to gloat about how the dealer overlooked something.  |

Reallly difficult to understand how anyone could miss that S. Really great find for that price.

nice, and a very scarce variety.
The centered MM on this date is very scarce, I have searched for them for years, and only one in about every 100 are the centered MM.
Great find, and an even better price.

sweet! Dealers near me don't sell Barbers for melt. I'm jealous!

Inspired by your example I checked the Barber quarter bin at my local shop and found a 1895-S in G-4 (mm far right). Not as great a find as the '97-S but I'll keep checking! |

The 1897-S is becoming a tough coin to find especially without any problems. Nice find!

I love to read stories like this! What an awesome find and what a keen eye you have to find it amongst all of the other coins in the bin. Keep on looking and best of luck to you in the future!
