The Capped Bust Quarter is a notable type of coin minted in the United States from 1815 to 1838. The design features a young portrait of Liberty with a cap, symbolizing freedom, adorned on the obverse side. The reverse displays an eagle with a shield, representing strength and sovereignty. The 1838 Capped Bust Quarter is especially significant as it marks the end of this particular design series, making it a valuable collectible among numismatists.
