What are the differences between the 1916 and 1917 Type 1 Standing Liberty Quarters? Is there a site that lists these? Where can I find LARGE pictures of each coin? Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the Forum travelbooker !! Rather than try to explain - I'll just let you read it. Pics are there too Standing Liberty Quarter
To my knowledge, there are 2 ways to tell the difference between a 1916 and a 1917 Ty.1 SLQ : 1) On a 1916, Liberty's head goes right into the edge beading -- on a 1917 it is just below it. 2) The bottom dress folds are slightly different between the two dates. Compare these pictures : I hope this helps, Dan
