Description
The 1827 Capped Bust Quarter - Restrike Square 2 is part of the Capped Bust Quarters 1815-1838 series. The obverse features Liberty facing left wearing a mob cap or turban, while the reverse displays a heraldic eagle with shield on breast, olive branch and arrows in talons, with a banner reading E PLURIBUS UNUM. Designed by John Reich. Struck in 89% silver, 11% copper, weighing 6.74 grams, 27 mm in diameter. The Capped Bust Quarter was first struck in 1815 — there is no 1808-1814 quarter production — making the 1815 a historically important first-year issue. The 1823/2 overdate is a classic rarity. The 1827 original (restrike controversial) and certain proof-only dates attract specialized collectors.
