The Standing Liberty Quarter was a 25-cent coin struck by the United States Mint from 1916-1930. It succeeded the Barber quarter, which had been minted since e1892. Featuring the goddess of Liberty on one side and an eagle in flight on the other, the coin was designed by sculptor Hermon Atkins MacNeil. In 1915, Director of the Mint Robert W. Woolley set in motion efforts to replace the Barber dime, quarter, and half dollar, as he mistakenly believed that the law required new designs. In circulation, the coin's date wore away quickly, and Mint engravers modified the design to address the issue in 1925. The Standing Liberty Quarter was discontinued in 1931, a year in which no quarters were struck. By Congressional Act, the Washington Quarter, featuring the first President's Profile was introduced in 1932 to celebrate the bicentennial of his birth.
