Historical Note:
The Barber Dime was introduced in 1892 as part of a new coinage suite designed by Mint Engraver Charles Barber, replacing the Seated Liberty design. Though widely circulated, the series faced criticism for its conservative style. Today, Barber coinage is appreciated for its historic role in U.S. numismatics and its connection to turn-of-the-century America. The 1910 Philadelphia issue is a common date, but certified Uncirculated Details examples remain attractive additions to type sets and silver dime collections.
