Bust and Seated Liberty Quarters (1796 - 1891)
The first quarter introduced for circulation was the Draped Bust Quarter with Small Eagle Reverse
in 1796. The design of Bust Quarter followed the patters of the early half dimes and dimes. The 1796 Draped Bust featured 15 obverse stars and a flowing hair
Liberty on the obverse. On the reverse, the small eagle was surrounded by an olive branch and the legend. As with the half dimes, there is no denomination
present on the quarters until 1804 when "25C." first appeared on the Draped Bust with Heraldic Eagle Reverse. The appearance of the eagle on the reverse was
changed again in 1815 when the Capped Bust Quarter was released. 1796 Bust Quarters are very rare in any grade and usually at a high
