1911-S Barber Dime Fine
The 1911-S Barber dime represents a fascinating era of United States coinage, struck in 90 percent pure silver at the San Francisco Mint. This ten-cent piece contains 0.0715 troy ounces of precious metal. Preserved in Fine condition, it displays the wear and character of a coin that actively circulated during the early twentieth century. Designed by Charles Barber, the obverse of the coin showcases a classic portrait of Lady Liberty. She is depicted facing right, wearing a laurel wreath and a Phrygian cap, surrounded by the inscription "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and the 1911 year of issue. The reverse of the dime features a detailed wreath that frames the denomination "ONE DIME". This wreath design provides a delicate, organic contrast to the structured portrait on the obverse, making the Barber dime a captivating study in early American coin design.
