History

James Earle Fraser is renowned for his redesign of the US nickel in 1913, which followed the redesign of all four denominations of the US Eagle Gold Series in 1907 and 1908, and the US penny in 1909. A few years later in 1916, the dime, quarter, and half dollar underwent a redesign, followed by the US silver dollar in 1921.
