Now I know these coins aren't the highest of grades, but if there's a 1917-1924 SLQ in the junk pile with at least 1 legible digit I can't pass it up. I think I came out pretty dang good at $3.60 a piece!

    1917 S Type 1
    1918 S Type 2
    1919 D Type 2 (last 9 shows)
    1923 Type 2
    1924 Type 2

    I seem to see a slight top of a 2 on that "1919D"

    There can't be a 2 on that coin. The coin is clearly a pre-1925 variety. If this was a 1929-D the entire date would be crystal clear at this coins grade (F-VF).

    Great finds for junk silver prices. You certainly are 'required' to buy such coins in this situation.

    Great finds. Best I've come up with is a 1918.

    How long did it take on average for the dates to wear off the early q's Seems very quickly

    There's always one skeptic in the bunch.
