No. The liberty bell wasn't the "liberty bell" when Franklin was alive. When he was alive it was the State House Bell and first was called the Liberty Bell by a group trying to outlaw slavery in the 1830's. It was suppose to remind Americans of the early days when they fought and worked for independence. The bell was made in London and it cracked after it arrived in Philadelphia. A new bell was made in 1753 from the English bell, but by 1846 a thin crack began to appear and affected the sound of the bell. It was repaired in 1846 and rang for a George Washington birthday celebration, but cracked again and hasn't rung since. It weighs about 2000 pounds and is made of 70% copper, 25% tin, and some lead, zinc, arsenic, gold and silver. It hangs from what is thought to be the original yoke made from an American elm. As you can see Franklin had nothing to do with the bell.

The inscription on the Liberty Bell states "Proclaim Liberty throughout all the Land unto all the inhabitants thereof Lev. XXV. X By order of the Assembly of the Province of Pennsylvania for the State house in Philadelphia. Pass and Stow MDCCLIII

Both were signs of freedom.

In response to a 2001 attack on the Liberty Bell by a visitor with a hammer, the bell was moved out of reach. Visitors are no longer allowed to touch the bell, and must pass through a security screening before getting close.

It can't be a quarter, or it can't have a Liberty Bell image on it. All quarters from 1932 to 1998 have a picture of George Washington on the front and an eagle on the back.

However, half dollars from 1948 to 1963 did have the Liberty Bell on the back - did you check the coin's denomination?

And finally, remember that mint mark positions today are different from 60 years ago. The position on quarters was on the back under the bow, and on halves above the yoke of the bell - plus, Philadelphia didn't use a mint mark until 1980 on those denominations, so your coin may not have a letter at all.

That said, please see the Related Questions for values.

The Liberty Bell 7 (the capsule for the Mercury 4 mission) was not recovered at the end of the mission like most capsules. It sank in the Atlantic because the craft's hatch was opened too soon (apparently due to a malfunction) and it began filling with water before the recovery helicopter could get a cable attached. It was ultimately retrieved, but not until nearly 38 years after the mission. == ==

The reverse of the bicentennial Eisenhower dollar was designed by Dennis R. Williams, so those are his initials on the coin.

The bell was first adopted as a symbol by abolitionist societies in the 1830's, who dubbed it the "Liberty Bell."

The bell became famous after an 1847 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.

The Liberty Bell became even more famous when it traveled to various exhibitions and celebrations around the country.

arguably the Sons Of Liberty, who were the patiot group behind, among other things the Boston Tea party and in general stood up for colonial independence! A fictional treatment of this organization- which included alleged period songs ( follow the Liberty Tree, boys, Follow the Liberty Tree!) can be found int he Disney movie Johnny Tremaine. It should be note the Liberty Bell has always been in Philadelphia ,Pa. and the Sons of Liberty were strictly a Boston outfit.
