The Seated Liberty Quarter, minted from 1838 to 1891, features a seated liberty figure and is a significant collectible coin in American numismatics. The 1842 Seated Liberty Quarter, produced at the Philadelphia Mint, is notable for its historical value and design characteristics, including the inscription of "Liberty" on a ribbon above the figure. Collectors highly value these coins for their rarity, condition, and unique mint marks, with some specific years, like 1842, being more sought after due to lower mintage or specific variations.
