    Tough call.

    The Barber coins look more like a man than a woman - some kind of Greek god.

    That said, I actually like the Barber designs...

    The Capped Bust $2.5s and $5s are pretty hideous too. But I wouldn't mind havin' a few around...

    Oh Barber's without a doubt. I was collecting for about three years before I learned that was suppose to LADY Liberty on those coins. I always had thought it was a guy. Barbers look like a profile of a boxer.

    I am not even sure this is Liberty, but this face is just ugly - be it a he or a she. Someone seems to want it though.

    I suppose someone should mention it, I hate too. It's a great design!

    The "Mercury Dime", It's supposed to be a picture of Lady Liberty having a winged thinking cap on...... I think someone just wanted to put Mercury on a coin and made up an excuse.
