    What ya all think about this standing liberty quarter! Any idea? I know the pics are lousy but the coin is in poor condition which makes it even more difficult to photograph. Anyone? :)

    Well the lack of stars on the back and also the design of the lower left robes narrows it down to a 1916, or a 1917 type 1. The details of the shield rivets and also the visible lines on the bulk heads leads me to that conclusion...another thing that is usually seen on a 1916 is a "line" in the robe near liberty's right arm which continues to "God" In God We Trust...there are other distinguishing features you can read about if you use the forum search feature.
