In the United States, Liberty is commonly personified as a female goddess. While the most famous example of this is the Statue of Liberty, there are many classic Lady Liberty depictions on American coinage as well. The four classic designs are known as the Walking Liberty, the Seated Liberty, the Standing Liberty, and the Liberty Head.

All 2022 Barbados The Lady Liberty 4-Coin Sets have been applied with a stunning blue ice nano-coating. This gives them a subtly different hue than your standard silver coin and makes them truly stand out within their black display case. The rectangular coins are presented in a row inside the presentation box and arrive with an official Certificate of Authenticity from the mint.
The Barbados coat of arms is featured on the obverse side of each coin in 2022 The Lady Liberty 4-Coin Sets. This official emblem depicts a pelican and a dolphin as they prop up a shield. The Barbados motto of Liberty and Industry is shown beneath it. The country of origin, year, denomination, weight, and purity are all shown on the obverse as well.
Motifs of Lady Liberty are featured on the reverse designs of the coins in the 2022 Barbados The Lady Liberty Sets. These are based on classic portraits found on American coins. Each design extends into the next coin, which creates a seamless portrait of all four images when placed in sequence.
The designs chosen for the Lady Liberty 4-Coin Set have their roots in iconic American coinage artwork. Adolph A. Weinman produced the original Walking Liberty motif, which was later redesigned for the famous American Silver Eagle obverse. Engraver Christian Gobrecht designed The Seated Liberty portrait for various coins minted from 1836 to 1891. American artist Hermon Atkins is credited with the Standing Liberty motif found on quarters from 1916 to 1930. Finally, the iconic Liberty Head portrait was produced by US Mint Chief Engraver James B. Longacre for the $20 gold Liberty coins struck from 1850 to 1907. This design was then replaced by the St. Gaudens portrait.
