Owner Comments:

Barber is named for its designer - the chief engraver at the mint at the time. It was a 25 year issue, following the Seated Liberty. It was based on the head of the Morgan Dollar with a different cap and the hair shorter. I think the Barber looks more like a Roman than a depiction of Liberty. I like this one for its toning.
