Barber Quarter Dates & Mintmarks

All 74 issues of the series, 1892 through 1916, sharing Charles Barber's design with the dime and half dollar of the same years. The 1901-S is the key and one of the most sought-after twentieth-century U.S. coins; the 1913-S has the lowest mintage in the series at 40,000.

No price guide, valuation or population count appears anywhere in this catalog: Coin Curator holds no licensed data for any of those. Key and semi-key date pages additionally carry recent eBay sold prices, which are records of completed sales rather than a valuation. How we work.

Rank 1 is the lowest business-strike mintage in the series. Tiers are assigned from reported mintage alone: under 750,000 struck is a key date, under 2,500,000 a semi-key. The same thresholds apply to every series on this site, so tiers are comparable between them. That is a production measure, not a market judgement, and not a statement about how many survive.

Common questions

How many Barber quarter dates and mintmarks are there?

74, struck at Philadelphia, Denver, New Orleans and San Francisco. New Orleans stopped striking coins in 1909 and Denver only opened in 1906, so no single mint covers the whole run.

Who was Charles Barber, and why is one design on three denominations?

Barber was the Mint's chief engraver. The Mint had run a public competition to replace the Seated Liberty design and found the entries unsatisfactory, a judgement Barber himself helped reach, and his own design was adopted instead. It was then applied to the dime, quarter and half dollar together, which is why the three series share a span and a look.

Where do these mintage figures come from?

They are U.S. Mint production records, cross-checked on 2026-08-02 against three published tables. Two of the three report proofs separately and agree on every issue; the third adds that year's proofs into its Philadelphia figures on all twenty-four proof years. This catalog reports business strikes and shows proofs in their own field.

Does Coin Curator publish Barber quarter values?

Not as a valuation. Key and semi-key date pages carry recent eBay sold prices: what certified examples actually sold for in the last 90 days, grouped by grade band, with the number of sales and the full range shown alongside each median. That is a record of completed sales, not a price guide, an appraisal, or a population and census count, none of which Coin Curator holds licensed data for. Common dates carry no sold data at all. Pages link to the grading services' own certification lookups and to marketplace searches so you can check current evidence yourself.
