Seated Liberty Quarters

The Seated Liberty design was added to the U.S. quarter in 1838. Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse features Liberty seated on a rock and holding a pole with a slave cap atop it, while the reverse depicts an American eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch in its talons, symbolic of war and peace. There are seven different modified designs of the Liberty Seated quarter.

Collecting Coins From the U.S. Mint

Quarters

The Liberty Seated quarter, minted between 1838 and 1891, represents a significant chapter in American coinage, offering a glimpse into the nation's past. With its elegant design by Christian Gobrecht, this quarter reflects the artistry and ideals of its time, making it a prized piece for collectors.For those who appreciate the historical context and design of the Liberty Seated quarters, expanding your collection to include other U.S. quarters can provide further insights into America's numismatic journey.

Gobrecht's seated figure was just one of several allegorical Liberty designs to grace the quarter, giving way to the Barber quarter in 1892 and, a generation later, to a standing interpretation shaped by the First World War era. That later design, the 1916-1930 Standing liberty quarter, makes a striking contrast to Gobrecht's seated composition while opening its own chapter of American history.
