Capped Bust Quarters were minted in the United States from 1815 to 1838, featuring a design by artist John Reich. The 25-cent coins prominently display Liberty wearing a cap, symbolizing freedom, on the obverse, while the reverse features an eagle with a shield. The 1837 Capped Bust Quarter is notable for its transitional design just before the series was replaced by the Seated Liberty design. The Capped Bust Quarters are significant among collectors for their historical context and artistic appeal.
