1895-0 & 1894-0 BARBER DIME DATE POSITIONING

Is this a meaningful issue?

I am aware of the 3 positions known for the "5" on the 1895-O Barber Dime relative to the Bust:

-Far

-Near

-Touching.

Today, I looked at 5 of these coins and noted 2 had the 5 touching, 3 were near, and 0 in the Far position.

I don't know which, if any are rare.

The interesting point (at least to me) is that I pulled out 3 1894-O Barber Dimes and looked at the date position. I am totally unaware of any varieties here. SURPRISE! 2 coins had the "4" touching the Bust, and 1 coin had the "4" in the near position.

Is anyone aware of the variety in date placement? And is it rare?

IS IT MEANINGFUL?
