Detailed Information:

The Standing Liberty Quarters depict the American bravado and desire for peace in much gusto. Since Europe was already on the warpath, America showed its preparedness for war but the desire for peace with its coins.

The Standing Liberty Quarters were minted in 1916 till 1930. It was a misinterpretation of the 1890 Act by the Director of US Mint, Robert W. Woolley, that he was not just allowed but also required to replace old coins with new coins after the old coins have served for a period of 25 years. The Barber Dimes, Quarters, and Half Dollars had been in circulation since 1892 and by 1916, it had completed its 25 years, so Woolley decided to introduce new coins.

The Barber coins had met with a lot of criticism for its designs upon its release and all three denominations contained almost same designs. So, Woolley’s intention was to give different designs to different denominations which were appealing to the eyes and were appreciated for their artistic value. Although Charles E. Barber was given a chance to design for the new coins, his designs were rejected by the Commission of Fine Arts.

The Commission held a competition between three New York sculptors; Adolph Weinman, Hermon MacNeil, and Albin Polasek to design for the new coins. They had the option to submit multiple sketches. Woolley had hoped that each sculptor might get a coin to design. However, when the sketches were submitted, a discussion between Woolley and the Treasury Secretary McAdoo, led to selecting five designs of Weinman (two for dime, two for half dollar, and one for the reverse of quarter), one of MacNeil and none of Polasek. However, the members of the Commission advised Woolley not to entrust a single artist with so much work. Once Woolley was convinced, MacNeil was given the responsibility of designing both the obverse and reverse of quarter while Weinman was given the opportunity to design for dime and half dollar.

MacNeil succeeded in designing one of the most beautiful designs of a militaristic Liberty which sent out a strong message to the entire world of America’s desire for peace as well as military readiness.
