This Liberty Bell is a pretty good replica of the original Liberty Bell cast back in 1753 -- down to the wooden yoke -- save for the inscription. This particular copy is engraved with a much simpler text which reads:

"PHILADELPHIA
MDCCLIII
PROCLAIM
1776
LIBERTY"

Copies of this replica bell can be found at select locations throughout the town of Liberty, the county seat of Liberty County.
