Capped Bust Quarters were minted in the United States from 1815 to 1838, featuring an obverse design of Liberty with a distinctive capped hairstyle. The 1822 issue is particularly notable, as it is part of a series that showcased evolving coinage designs during that period. These quarters are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, and they are highly sought after by collectors for their historical significance and beauty. The Capped Bust design was replaced by the Seated Liberty design in 1838, marking the end of this series.
