The Barber Quarter, officially known as the Liberty Head Quarter, was designed by Charles E. Barber and minted by the United States from 1892 to 1916. The 1898 Barber Quarter from the New Orleans Mint (Mintmark: O) is a 25-cent coin notable for its distinct design featuring Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. This coin is sought after by collectors for its historical significance and the limited production associated with the New Orleans Mint during that era, influencing its rarity and value. Typically, the condition of the coin, as defined by its grading (from Good to Mint State), plays a critical role in determining its market price.
