The Capped Bust Quarter is a type of silver quarter coin minted by the United States from 1815 to 1838. The 1828 Capped Bust Quarter was minted at the Philadelphia Mint and features a bust of Liberty wearing a 'capped' headband on the obverse, while the reverse displays an eagle with outstretched wings. This coin is significant in U.S. numismatic history, known for its artistic design and the historical context of early American coinage. The Capped Bust series is highly collectible among numismatists, especially in higher grades due to its relatively low mintage and historical importance.
