1907 Barber Quarter (Obverse)

The item is a United States Barber Quarter, specifically the obverse side. It depicts the head of Liberty facing right, wearing a Phrygian cap and a wreath of olive branches and wheat. The inscription "IN GOD WE TRUST" is visible above Liberty's head, though partially obscured and worn. The date is visible below the bust as "1907", indicating it was minted in that year. The coin appears to be made of a silver alloy, characteristic of US quarters from this period (90% silver, 10% copper). The physical characteristics show significant wear consistent with a circulated coin. Many of the finer details, such as strands of hair on Liberty's head and the definition of the wreath, are softened or abraded. The surface exhibits a dull, somewhat dirty silver-grey patina, unevenly distributed. There are numerous scratches and abrasions across the field, particularly prominent over Liberty's face and neck, indicating extensive handling or rough storage. No mint mark is clearly discernible from the provided image, which would typically be located below the eagle on the reverse side (not shown). The rim appears mostly intact but also shows signs of wear. The overall condition suggests a 'Good' to 'Very Good' grade by numismatic standards, due to the heavy wear obscuring design details, but key elements like the date and "IN GOD WE TRUST" are still readable.
