COIN HIGHLIGHTS:

• CLASSIC EARLY U.S. MINT DESIGN – The Seated Liberty is one of the classic designs of the 19th century. Originally created by U.S. Mint Engraver Christian Gobrecht, the same design of Lady Liberty seated with her right hand on a shield and her left hand grasping a staff topped by a Phrygian cap was used on the half-dime, dime, quarter, half-dollar and dollar coins of the 19th century.
• STRUCK IN FINE SILVER – Each Seated Liberty Silver Quarter was struck in 6.25 grams 90% silver and measures 24.3 mm in diameter.
• LEGAL-TENDER COIN – These Seated Liberty Silver Quarters were twenty-five cents legal tender in the United States, a tidy sum at a time when a quarter could have paid for a steak dinner!
• GOOD TO VERY GOOD CONDITION – Your 1852–1863 Seated Liberty Quarter will come in Good to Very Good (G–VG) condition.
