Can you imagine if the ice cream man just happen to save that particular dime, only to be passed down!

Coop sent me an old Barber dime Whitman folder that actually has a spot for the 1894-S that says "Rare", 24 minted

Most of the older Whitman folders had dumb stuff like that. I used to have those that had a spot for the 1913 Liberty Head Nickel but there was a blank peice of cardboard in that slot. Same with my older Liberty Head Nickels Folders too. Not sure but I thing many of the older Folders had those little blue things in places for most rare or scarce coins. IF, for some reason you got one, you were supposed to pop those out.

Further, three of the dimes were said to have been given to the superintendent's daughter who allegedly spent one on ice cream...

Which is not likely true considering she was sixteen at the time. If her father had given them to her and told her to keep them because someday they would be rare, she would be old enough to realize that she should hold them and not use one to indulge in a dish of icecream.
