Best Answer

The full wording first appeared in 1892, when the famed artist Charles Barber was chosen to redesign the dime, quarter, and half.

Quarters carried their actual denomination, abbreviated as "25 C", until mid-1838.

The design was changed in mid-year, with the new reverse displaying "Quar. Dol." until 1891.

Who would have the ball after the first quarter?

The team that possessed the ball at the end of the first quarter would have possession of the ball at the start of the second quarter. Game play continues between the first and second quarters, and also between the third and fourth quarters. So if a team is in the middle of a drive at the end of the first quarter, play will resume for that team wherever it ended when the quarter expired. The only difference is that teams exchange ends of the field between quarters, so that if the team in possession is on the 30-yard line at the end of the quarter, play will move to the opposite 30-yard line at the start of the next quarter.
