<p>[QUOTE="manny9655, post: 6525736, member: 112417"]On the 1916's, yes. A couple of things to look for on those, is that the stars on the shield are different and the leaves on the olive branch cross the L in Liberty on both 1916 and 1917. The lines on the tablets (for lack of a better term) below the words "in God" and Trust" on 1917 and later are more pronounced than on the 1916s. And of course the reverse is different on issues after 1917. 1925 and later has the date recessed because the dates wore off easily. Also, if you can make out a "1" as the last number in the date, you know it's a 1921, as we didn't mint any quarters in 1931. Your coin is probably between 1918 and 1924.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
