This design was minted during the first part of 1916 and can be identified by a wreath on the back and a portrait of Miss Liberty on the front, facing to the right. The name comes not from a hair salon but from the coin's designer, Charles Barber.
Look under the wreath to see if there's a small mint mark letter. It may be blank, or there may be an S.
