The Liberty Seated Quarter, issued by the United States Mint from 1838 to 1891, features the image of Lady Liberty seated on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The 1868 Philadelphia mint issue is notable for its relatively low mintage compared to other years, making it a sought-after collectible among numismatists. This coin is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, with specifications of 24.26 mm in diameter and a weight of 6.25 grams. Its design reflects the artistic style of the mid-19th century, and well-preserved examples are valued for both their historical significance and numismatic appeal.
