In the 2026 United States Semiquincentennial quarter series, which document is represented by the Liberty Bell design?

The Liberty Bell design on a 2026 Semiquincentennial quarter represents the Declaration of Independence.

The United States Mint created a special quarter series for the nation's 250th anniversary. One of the designs commemorates the Declaration of Independence, pairing an obverse featuring Thomas Jefferson with a reverse depicting the Liberty Bell. The coins carry the dual date 1776~2026 to link the founding era with the anniversary year.

The Liberty Bell is displayed in Philadelphia and has long been associated with American independence. Although the bell was cast in 1752, its famous connection with independence comes from its later symbolic use, including the inscription from Leviticus: “Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Unto All the Inhabitants Thereof.”

This quarter can be confused with other 2026 designs tied to the Constitution, the American Revolutionary War, the Gettysburg Address, and the Mayflower Compact. The Liberty Bell specifically identifies the Declaration of Independence design in the series.
