The 57 U.S. Treasury Liberty Bell replicas
See the map and the table below for information on and locations of the 57 full-size U.S. Treasury Liberty Bell replicas. Click the links for the full story. This is an ongoing project. To date, I’ve seen 31 of the 57. There are also at least 100 Liberty Bell replicas in addition to these. Here is a list of additional Liberty Bell replica locations.
*The serial numbers on the list I started working with are not all accurate. Asterisks indicate numbers I’ve verified, either personally or through photos. If you can verify or correct any of the numbers, please comment and let me know.
Also, check out the Liberty Bell Replica Facebook page created by the Brock family. They have been helpful in confirming and correcting serial numbers.
Tom! We love all the information on this website. I have traveled with my children to many states over the past 3 years, and for each new state, we try to locate the liberty bell replica and take photos. We were in Juneau Alaska in 2019, but I didn’t take a photo of the back side of the bell. Shame on me. However, some friends were there today and sent me photos in attempt to confirm #2… but there was NO NUMBER on the bell located outside the state capitol building!!! I’d love to send you the pictures. Any idea why?
Heidi,
Thanks for the kind words, it’s always nice to meet a fellow bell hunter. We just saw our 30th and will get #31 next week. I’d love to see any photos you have. You can send them to [email protected]. Not every bell has the prominent, raised serial number (no idea why). Some are a little harder to find. This article has some good photos of the different serial number placement. Maybe if your friends are still there they can go back and look for the stealthy number!
Florida’s bell is definitely #12.
I have an image if you would like it.
Denice, Thanks for writing. Yes, please send a photo to [email protected]. May I publish your photo?
Please note that we are having one cast for display at my university – Houston Baptist University in Houston, Texas. The school is building a classroom building modeled after Independence Hall and the bell will be displayed in the lobby. Apparently its cast from the same mold as the treasury bell replicas and being shipped from France.
Dr. Hammons,
Thanks for the tip. I had not heard about your project. That’s exciting, and congratulations. In my hunt for Liberty Bells, I’ve learned of a number of Independence Hall replicas: Dallas Baptist University, The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, MI, Knott’s Berry Farm (where the National Treasure movie was filmed), and even a mini-mall in Wilmington, DE. I’d love to visit them all.
Texas definitely holds the record for most Liberty Bell replicas. Your’s will be #8 (at least).
Paccard makes beautiful bells, and I’m sure it will bring much joy and patriotic fervor to your campus. Please keep me posted on the bell’s expected arrival date. I’d love to see photos and any other info. There is nothing like the shine on a newly-cast bell!
Cheers,
— Tom
Just heard on KCOZ radio that there is a Liberty Bell at College of the Ozarks in Point Lookout, MO, just 2 mi south of Branson Missouri. Can you confirm? That would be three in Missouri alone.
John,
Thanks for the tip. I can confirm. I found some photos but not much other info. Based on the condition and lettering, my best guess is the bell was cast by Whitechapel around 1976.
