The Barber Dime, designed by Charles E. Barber, was minted from 1892 to 1916 and features a depiction of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The 1896 Barber Dime, specifically minted in New Orleans, is notable for its limited mintage and historical context, making it a sought-after collectible. Dimes from this era are valued based on their condition, rarity, and market demand, with the New Orleans mint mark (O) indicating coins produced at that facility. Collectors often seek out Barber Dimes to complete sets or to own pieces of American numismatic history.
