<p>[QUOTE="sand, post: 8080426, member: 118540"]I just found other US coins, showing Liberty with a freedmen's hat (pileus). The US Gobrecht Dollar (1836 to 1839), the US Seated Liberty Dollar (1840 to 1873), the US Seated Liberty Half Dollar (1839 to 1891), the US Seated Liberty Quarter (1838 to 1891), the US Seated Liberty Dime (1837 to 1891), and the US Seated Liberty Half Dime (1837 to 1873). All of these US coins, show Liberty sitting on a boulder, holding a "Liberty pole", with a freedmen's hat (pileus) on top of the pole. However, as noted in previous posts above, the hat on the pole, may also resemble a Phrygian cap, but seemingly was intended to be a freedmen's hat (pileus).</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seated_Liberty_dollar#Gobrecht_dollar" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seated_Liberty_dollar#Gobrecht_dollar" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seated_Liberty_dollar#Gobrecht_dollar</a></p><p>Here are examples of the US Gobrecht Dollar.</p><p>NOTE : These are not my coins.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1402920[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1402921[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
