I would think it can't be a dime, quarter, or half dollar without having liberty in the name. All the Barber coins can also be called Liberty head coins. Unless it is some sort of commemorative but the only one I can find is a Half issued in 1915 from San Francisco.

I'm thinking its a coin from one of the us colonies.
Like a 1915 10,20, or 40 Cuban centavos which were all minted in Philadelphia and issued in a United states controlled Cuba.

Sorry about the wait. Just home from work, where I do not have access to Forum. It is not from Denver. It IS a half dollar. I will confirm that I took the earlier question about Liberty in the name of the type to exclude the Barber types, i.e. it eliminated the Standing Liberty quarter, Walking Liberty half (personally, I have never heard of the Barber types being called Liberty head in my life, but I lead a rather sheltered existence in the numismatic sense).

We really don't have the country nailed yet. A Denver yes answer eliminates Cuba. Good call Gincoin.

WE HAVE A WINNER!I am not actively collecting U.S. coins these days, but I have a partial year set for 1907 Philadelphia, since this was both the year and place where my grandfather arrived in America.
