Owner Comments:

Attributed to William Barber, the obverse depicts a seated figure of Liberty facing left and supporting a shield in her right hand, an olive branch in her left. A free-standing liberty pole is present behind the shield. On the reverse 10 CENTS is within a wreath of cotton and corn, with the inscription STANDARD above. Struck in copper with a plain edge. Both sides have taken on a deep blue patina, while a few traces of original red can still be seen. The fields are deeply mirrored, the devices are fully brought up throughout.
