The Draped Bust design, created by artist Robert Scot, was used on U.S. coins from 1795 to 1807, including the Two and a Half Dollar (also known as the Quarter Eagle) minted in 1805. This coin features a depiction of Liberty with flowing hair, symbolizing freedom, and the reverse showcases an eagle with outstretched wings. The 1805 Draped Bust Quarter Eagle is a notable collectible due to its low mintage and historical significance in American numismatics. It represents an important era in U.S. coinage design and is sought after by collectors for its artistry and rarity.
