1898 Barber Silver Coin

Here's a detailed look at the obverse, or front, of an 1898 Barber silver coin. You can clearly see the striking profile of Lady Liberty, adorned with a Phrygian cap and a laurel wreath, a common motif of the era. The inscription "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" gracefully frames the design, and the year of mintage, 1898, is prominently displayed at the bottom. This coin represents a piece of late 19th-century American numismatic artistry, part of Charles E. Barber's iconic series.
