The Seated Liberty portrait designs, used during the mid to late 19th century from 1836 through 1891, appeared on most regular issue silver United States coinage. Denominations of coins that featured the Seated Liberty design included the half dime, the dime, the quarter, and until 1873 the silver dollar. From 1875 through 1878 the twenty cent piece (the only denomination of it's kind) appeared exclusively with the Seated Liberty design.
