Cannot identify positively - compare it to a modern dime, quarter and half. (For the size)
It is commonly called a Barber coin named for the director of the mint.
Made between 1892 and 1915/1916.
These coins circulated heavily during the second world war and are often found in this condition.

@mazzie, first welcome to CCF. Second, this seems to be a silver Barber coin, but as @mtv mentions, these were made in dime, quarter, and half dollar denominations. Can you please post a pic of the reverse side of the coin too? Thx. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barber_coinage"If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Oh of course, Spence, the reverse would confirm the denomination!

Looks like it might say "IN GOD WE TRUST", if so it's a quarter or a half.

It has STARS on the obv so it is either a quarter or half dollar. From the way the ribbons look I think it is a quarter.
