[QUOTE="The Half Dime, post: 26052710, member: 153164"]Especially since some of those dates jump like crazy in value from one grade to the next. One of my local coin shops has a 1921 graded G6, and its price is $132. I haven't gotten it yet, but before I do, I might nab a trade dollar or a Seated dollar up there. I wonder what it is with people and the lack of SLQs? To my knowledge, I only have 5, and the best date - a 1917 Type 1 - is worn down to AG, so it goes for barely over melt. For your other post about the 1916, it's a good place to start, but the only thing holding it back is that 1916s and 17 Type 1 quarters are quite different of a design than 1925 and after. Sure, Liberty is still standing, and an eagle is on the reverse; however, you can compare a 1917 Type 1, some graded VF with a barely visible date, to a 1925-30, where the date is visible even in AG. A tougher date? I assume you mean in high grades. I'm not sure since SLQs aren't of the greatest interest to me at the moment, but it's nice to at least have some in the inventory. That's a nice one! It looks to probably be in Fine condition, about a 12, possibly a 15. On a side note, do you know how long it's been since you've found a Standing Liberty quarter in change? I know you've been collecting coins for longer than about everyone on here. Other than the date, and [I]le pricey tag'ey[/I], yes. ;) It's hard to put an exact grade on it, though, since you can compare VG to fine on sites like PCGS Photograde and there is barely any difference. I've practically been looking to grade them by the shield detail. VG10 is probably what most people, like PCGS, would give it. If there were 3 graders, one might say F12, but the others would say VG10 in a heartbeat. For now I stay at F12, though that may go lower in the future. I would probably never upgrade it to a 15 as, for it to be a small difference in details, it is a big one.[/QUOTE]
