1904-O Barber Quarter VG
Struck in 0.900 fine silver, this 1904 quarter dollar represents a fascinating era of American coinage. Minted in New Orleans, as indicated by the 'O' mint mark, this piece carries a total silver content of approximately 0.1788 troy ounces. It survives today in a graded condition of Very Good, showing the honest wear of a coin that circulated during the early twentieth century. The coin features a classic design created by Charles Barber. On the obverse, a profile of Lady Liberty faces right, adorned with a laurel wreath and a Phrygian cap. Above her head, the national motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' is inscribed, with the year 1904 positioned below. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with its wings spread wide, protecting a shield on its chest. In its beak, the eagle holds a banner, while its talons grasp an olive branch and a cluster of arrows, symbolizing both peace and readiness. This intricate combination of classic motifs makes the Barber quarter a compelling subject for study and appreciation.
