Seated Liberty Quarters are a series of coins minted in the United States from 1838 to 1891, featuring a depiction of Lady Liberty seated on a rock. The 1859 Seated Liberty Quarter, specifically struck at the New Orleans Mint, is part of a notable year for collectors due to its relatively low mintage compared to other years. Collectors often seek these quarters for their numismatic value, historical significance, and the variations in design and mintmark. The New Orleans Mint produced a distinctive "O" mintmark, making those coins particularly sought after by enthusiasts.
