1894-O Barber Quarter XF
The 1894 Barber quarter represents a classic era of United States silver coinage, minted at the historic New Orleans facility. Struck in 90% silver, this coin contains 0.17875 troy ounces of precious metal. It showcases the distinctive artistic vision of Charles Barber, whose designs defined American pocket change at the turn of the twentieth century. On the obverse, a dignified profile of Lady Liberty faces right, adorned with a laurel wreath and a Phrygian cap. The word LIBERTY is clearly visible on her band, surrounded by stars and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The reverse displays a powerful heraldic eagle with outstretched wings, protecting a shield on its chest. In its beak, the eagle holds a banner, while its talons grasp an olive branch and a bundle of arrows, symbolizing a desire for peace paired with a readiness for defense.
