  Standing Liberty Quarter
On the obverse, Liberty is shown as a full-length front view figure with her head turned toward the left.
It is rumored that Miss Liberty's exposed right breast was offensive to some and due to this the design was changed part way through 1917.
Others believe that the motif was revised to show Miss Liberty nearly completely encased in a suit of armor or mail, probably in reference to preparedness for the World War then raging in Europe.

Liberty's partial nudity prompted a further modification of the design in 1917, when her bare breast was covered with a shirt of chain mail.
