1908 Barber Quarter US Mint ... Rare, 90% Silver in Fair Condition, Includes FREE Shipping ... The 1908 Barber Quarter, a classic issue from the U.S. Mint, continues the design legacy of Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber. Produced at the Philadelphia (no mintmark), Denver ("D"), New Orleans ("O"), and San Francisco ("S") Mints, this year marks a late stage in the Barber series, which ran from 1892 to 1916. The obverse features a dignified rendition of Lady Liberty, her head adorned with a Phrygian cap and laurel wreath, while the reverse showcases a majestic heraldic eagle with outstretched wings. While mintages were substantial from Philadelphia (4,232,000), Denver (5,788,000), and New Orleans (6,244,000), the 1908-S quarter stands out as a comparatively low mintage issue with just 784,000 coins struck. This lower production figure makes the San Francisco issue a key date for collectors, driving its premium in the numismatic market. Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, these quarters played a vital role in American commerce in the years leading up to the nation's burgeoning industrial and international influence.
