[QUOTE="phubanks, post: 893763, member: 23286"]Just bought this! :hail: It's my first unc. Standing Liberty Quarter (something I have wanted for 40+ years). The only SLQ's I had before this, I pulled out of bank quarter rolls in the mid 1960's (and they were badly WORN). I have seen few unc. SLQ's for sale with this much original mint luster. The fact that it's a 1917 Type 1 is just a cherry on top, the Type 1 was only made for 2 years, and was discontinued because the conservative right was upset there was a naked breast on a US coin. Starting later in 1917 for the Type 2, they covered Lady Liberty's right breast. I paid $595, which is just a hair under the PCGS price guide value of $600 to $700.
