Liberty Bell

In a town called Normandy.

John pass and john stow casted the liberty bell after it first cracked

It is 6 feet tall according to providenceform.org/libertybell.

The older ones are usually made of a type of metal, though in the modern era larger ones tend to be metal while others can be other materials, such as porcelain or fiberglass.

i learned in 1st that it needed made again because it broke

Yes. The Liberty Bell Forever stamps can be used at the current First Class rate forever... hence the name "Forever stamp". They are worth whatever the current First Class rate is. For example, the rate currently (Dec. 2010) is $0.44. The Forever stamps are worth that amount right now, even if they were purchased at a lower rate before the increase in May 2009. If the rate would happen to increase again, the Forever stamps would be valued at whatever the new rate would be, whether they are purchased before or after the increase.

The Liberty Bell symbolizes America's freedom from Britain. It was named the Liberty Bell because of the freedom it symbolized to our country.

The bell was first called the Liberty Bell in 1835 in a journal published by the New York Anti-Slavery Society. The bell was made in 1753, so it was 82 years old when it was first called the Liberty Bell.

These coins are actually called Franklin Half Dollars.

1958 is not a rare date. In circulated condition, its value will be based on the silver it contains -- about 1/3 the price of an ounce of silver.

A nice uncirculated one may bring 2 or 3 times that much.

The Liberty Bell is located in Philadelphia. The Liberty Bell can be found at the Liberty Bell Center which is on Market Street. The Liberty Bell is known as a national historical park/monument.

Approximately 1,500,000 people visit The Liberty Bell each year.

Taco Bell!

Technically there is only one large crack which is held together by the slot of metal able to be seen in any photo of the bell. But, it was broken into that large crevice two different times. Only on George Washington's birthday (the date the second part of the crack ocurred) did they move it from its original place in Independence Hall.

To call the founding fathers to meetings when it rang.

The Liberty Bell is composed primarily of Copper. Approximately 70 percent copper, 25 percent tin and traces of lead, zinc, arsenic, gold and silver.

Copper-nickel, not silver.

DRW is not the mint mark. It's the monogram of Dennis R. Williams who designed the coin's reverse side. The mint mark, if present, is above the date.

The Liberty Bell has had a crack in it for almost 2 centuries and it's its most famous feature so it's not at all surprising that the coin's designer would choose to show it.

Now that all of that's out of the way, there were over 230 million of these coins made as part of the Bicentennial celebration. Unless yours is a proof or uncirculated coin, it's only worth face value to $1.15.

Well, it definitely is not the largest. Depending on how large a bell is, what the bell is made of, how hard the bell is struck, and by what type of object, will determine how loud it is.

But the answer is a definite "No".

I know their last names: Pass and Stow. They are on the liberty bell.

This is the forever stamp -- its value as postage remains at the current first class rate. Even when the rate goes up, it can still be used without additional postage.

Now it is the same as a 42 cent stamp-- after May 11, it becomes a 44-center.

The liberty bell is 70% copper, 25% tin, 2% lead, 1% zinc, .25% arsenic and .20% silver with trace amounts of gold, magnesium, nickel and antimony. The bell is 70% copper, 25% tin, and contains traces of other metals.

The earliest date would be the 1830's when the bell was adopted as a symbol by abolitionist societies, who dubbed it the "Liberty Bell."

It became more of a national symbol in 1847 after a short story claimed that an aged bell-ringer rang it on July 4, 1776, upon hearing of the Second Continental Congress's vote for independence. However, no bells were rung that day, because the Second Continental Congress did not make any announcement of the vote for independence on that date.

because it is cracked. the liberty bell does not ring. it,s been that way since 1876, despite many attempts to repair it!

Chief Justice John Marshall, note spelling. Nothing to do with Martial Law which is the antithesis of the ideals of Liberty! Marshall was the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. That is the story I heard from museum officials in Philadelphia.
