The Capped Bust Quarter is a series of coins produced by the United States Mint between 1804 and 1839, characterized by its iconic design featuring a cap on the bust of Liberty. The 1834 Capped Bust Quarter is particularly notable as it marked the transition to slightly larger, heavier coins in the series. With a face value of 25 cents, these quarters are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. Collectors value these coins for their historical significance, artistry, and relative rarity, especially in higher grades. The Capped Bust design remains popular among numismatists for its classic representation of early American coinage.
