If there is an O or no mintmark on the back side below the eagle, then it's worth silver value; about $5
If there is an S mintmark, then it is worth perhaps a bit more.
Also, welcome!

I have looked through bargain boxes of Barber coins and I have yet to find a coin as nice as yours. Please, a pic of the reverse. A tad more than melt is my opinion. But not much.

sanjay, if there is any way please save this coin from the melting pot! It is a good, but very nice for the grade. That means that many other good coins from 1892 are as nice looking as this. Actually most that I have seen. I cannot give you numbers but I can give you the probable scenario: If you present this coin as a "junk" piece you will receive melt less maybe 10 percent. Your buyer will then turn around, put it into a 2X2 cardboard holder, and offer it for melt plus 20 percent. If I found this in a "junk" box I would buy it in a minute.

For a well worn Barber it is remarkably free of the damage these typically have such as scratches, dings, and a harsh cleaning. A very presentable coin and definitely a keeper. Ed ANA LM-3175

WOW! These coins in good do not get any better, And a beginning collector of these quarters, one who has smarts, would pay a small premium over the asking bid price for this piece.
