My new Standing Liberty Quarters. 1923 S, 1924 D , 1919 , 1923

My newest additions to my Poor Mans SLQ set. I bought an ANACS slabbed 23 S graded VF20 for $800,,,which is bid price on the grey sheet. I probably overpaid for the 24D at $225,,,but it was the only one not slabbed as I'm trying to fill my Dansco 7132 folder. The 1919 I paid $60 and the 1923 was $50,,,and again I think I overpaid. 4 coins,,,4 different dealers so I couldn't bundle and TRY to get a better price. I'd appreciate every ones feedback, grade, and what you would value them at. Thanks.

Beautiful 24-D, like the toning on the reverse!

 

BigTee,,,,that 24-D does pop, the picture does not do it justice.

 

I like the 24 D. Very nice! Good pickups for fair prices imo. Nicely done.

Now that you have the 23 S; you are no longer allowed to refer to your SLQs as "a poor man's set"

Now all you need is that elusive 1916 right? Here's one for you...

Race,,,,that's one hole that most likely never will be filled. I've got some other spots though that will keep me searching for a while,,,,like the 19-D and 19-S. I could not find either one of those at this show,,,,in any grade.

 

I agree... that '24-D is a beauty. Good luck in completing your set, and don't forget the elusive '31-S. Here's mine:

 

Those are tough dates. I overpaid for my 19 D in XF. But it's that craving to fill holes that keeps the coin dealers in business.

Good luck in your search!

 

My thoughts exactly. When he said "poor man" and then $800 dollars, I about fell out of my chair.

 

Yeah,,,it started out as a heavily circulated G to F set I was gonna put together,,,but we all know how crappy those coins look. So I bumped it up to at least VF condition with nice eye appeal. Before yesterday the most I had ever paid for a coin was $150,,,I saved for a long time knowing how much I would have to spend on a 23-S.

 

Yeah, the 23 S was my last hole to fill. Here's mine. She's F15 in a PCGS slab. Might have been bumped up to VF 20 but for the fact that the date is pretty worn. The rest of my set is in VF XF

I really enjoyed collecting circulated SLQs. They are a very challenging series to collect. I love the classic art deco design and they are hard to find in grades above F since they circulated so heavily. I filled the 1916 hole with a replica...for now.

Good luck finishing out your set, patience is the key with this series.

 

I've tried to do them a couple of times, but the condition I end up chasing is just soooo much money. I've had to be satisfied with the two for my 7070 album.

 

I know next to nothing about the series but the design is one of my favorites. The reverse of that 24 D is gorgeous!
