Circulated Silver Barber Dime Grab Bag (90% Silver) 50 Piece Lot ($5 Face Value) In Plastic Storage Tube

The Barber (or Liberty Head) coin series are composed of .900 silver and consists of three different denominations; dimes, quarters, and half-dollars. All Barber coins were minted from 1892-1916 (excluding the half-dollar, which was not struck during the final year of the series). The preceding Seated Liberty coins (1838-1891) began losing popularity by the late 1880s sparking Mint Director Edward Leech to order a competition for a new design. When artists invited to partake in the event did not participate, Leech opened the competition to the public. Unfortunately, none of the submissions proved to be suitable causing Leech to turn to his Chief Engraver, Charles E. Barber, for whom the series was named.

Barber Dimes 90% Silver $5 Face

The obverse of the Barber Dime shows a right-facing Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap, laurel wreath, and a headband with the word “LIBERTY” inscribed on it. The words “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” decorate the top inside rim of the coins and the date is shown on the bottom. The reverse shows the words “ONE DIME” framed by a wreath almost identical to that of the Seated Liberty Dime.

This 50 Piece lot ($5 Face Value) will include Circulated Barber Dimes ranging in dates from 1892-1916 that are randomly selected. Each lot will arrive in a plastic storage tube.
