The Draped Bust design, created by renowned engraver Robert Scot, was used on various U.S. coins between 1796 and 1807.
In 1804, the U.S. Mint produced only a small number of quarters, with estimates suggesting a mintage of merely 6,738 coins.
This limited production was due to a combination of economic factors and the mint's focus on producing other denominations.
The 1804 Draped Bust Quarter is prized not just for its scarcity but also for its design and historical significance.
