coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 25¢ (Twenty Five Cents, Quarter) \ Seated Liberty Quarters \ 1841 \ New Orleans
The Seated Liberty Quarter, designed by Christian Gobrecht, was minted from 1838 to 1891, featuring a representation of Liberty seated on a rock. The 1841 Seated Liberty Quarter is particularly notable as it was minted in New Orleans, where unique mintmark "O" distinguishes it from quarters produced in Philadelphia. Collectors often seek out this specific date and mint for its historical significance and limited availability, contributing to its value in the numismatic market. The quarter's design and rarity, combined with its regional minting, make it an important piece for those interested in U.S. coinage history.
