The bell is located on the steps outside the former Municipal building on High Street. The replica was unveiled on July 4, 1976 as part of the city's American Revolution bicentennial observance. It was produced by the same English bell foundry which cast the original bell in the 1750s. In 1976, the Whitechapel Bell Foundry Ltd. of London sold 100 Liberty Bell replicas in the United States. A Hamilton commission, headed by Jim Grimm, raised more than $12,000 to obtain one of the two Ohio bells for the city.
