label: Description
content: The ten year period from 1907 to 1916 saw new designs for every American coin being minted. The new quarter featured a standing figure of Liberty, shield elevated in one hand, an olive branch in the other. The right side of a coin is heraldic east, and Liberty’s shield can therefore be seen as protecting the nation from the World War I, ongoing in Europe at the time.
