Notes:
Mint marks: the mint mark appears as a small letter just below the wreath on the reverse, as follows:

None = Philadelphia
O = New Orleans
S = San Francisco
D = Denver

Six different punches were used to make the mintmarks on Barber Dimes, as follows:

San Francisco (three):
1) 1892-1899 - previously used on Seated Liberty Dimes - fat S with tall serifs and loops that are almost completely closed.
2) 1899-1911 - wider and thinner S with loops that are slightly more open and serifs that are not as tall and have a slightly rounded appearance.
3) 1912-1916 - thinner and taller than the preceding, but with smaller serifs and loops that are more open.

Denver (one):
4) 1906-1914

New Orleans (two):
5) 1892-1909 - previously used on Seated Liberty Dimes - fat sides connected by thin lines at top and bottom.
6) 1905 - "Micro" mint mark
