Well, as a future retirement gift, I want to find 1916 and 1918/7s Standing Liberty Quarters to complete this set. I have the following criteria: Certified by PCGS or NGC graded between vf25 and xf40 I need to see the date Looks good, no alteration or heavy cleaning I know I need patience to find the right one at a fair price. Any feedback would be appreciated.
I think your criteria are solid. I don't have experience with these particular coins but in general don't jump at the first coin you see unless it hits all the particulars. And if you can afford, it could make sense to stretch for the right coin instead of picking up a less expensive but unattractive example.
