Barber Dime Value
The Barber Dime is a part of the Barber coinage era. Like its sister coins, the Barber Quarter, and the Barber Half Dollar, the Barber Dime had an obverse design that consisted of a right facing head of liberty. Lady Liberty wore a crown made from olive branches. The difference between the Barber Dime’s design and its sister coins designs is the lack of stars surrounding the head of Liberty on the Barber Dime. The reverse was also different from the other coins in Barber coinage. The reverse consisted of the words “One Dime” in the center, surrounding those words was a wreath.

Often collectors will put together Barber Dime sets in a couple ways. The first is to put together a Dansco book of each year and mint mark. A collector can go as crazy as they would like by buying each of these coins in uncirculated condition or spending as little as possible by putting together a circulated set. Another option collectors often choose when putting together a Barber Dime collection is to buy certified coins that are graded by PCGS of NGC. Lastly, collectors also buy rolls of the Barber Dimes in circulated condition for the silver content since each Barber Dime is 90$ silver. Often these Barber Dimes are purchased in rolls.
