1805 Draped Bust Quarter – A Rare Early American Treasure

The 1805 Draped Bust Quarter is a remarkable piece of early American coinage, representing one of the first quarter-dollar issues ever struck by the United States Mint. Designed by Robert Scot, this classic coin features the elegant Draped Bust portrait of Liberty, her flowing hair framed by thirteen stars, symbolizing the original American colonies. The reverse showcases the majestic Heraldic Eagle, inspired by the Great Seal of the United States, with a shield on its breast and an olive branch and arrows in its talons—signifying the nation’s commitment to both peace and defense.

The 1805 Draped Bust Quarter is an exceptionally desirable coin due to its low mintage, limited surviving population, and historical significance. As one of only five Draped Bust Quarter issues (1796, 1804, 1805, 1806, and 1807), it holds a prominent place in early U.S. numismatics.

Highly sought after by collectors, this quarter represents a tangible connection to the early days of the American Republic. Whether in circulated or higher-graded condition, it remains a valuable and prestigious addition to any serious collection.
