Liberty Seated Quarters were minted in the United States from 1838 to 1891, featuring a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1885 Liberty Seated Quarter is particularly notable as it was produced at the Philadelphia Mint. This quarter is characterized by the seated figure of Liberty holding a shield and a pole with a cap, symbolizing freedom. The 1885 issue is part of a smaller mintage, making it more sought after among collectors, especially in higher grades. The coin's value is influenced by its condition, rarity, and historical significance in the realm of U.S. coinage.
