<p>[QUOTE="chip, post: 708564, member: 19122"]I am just a novice at coins, so my answer will probably not make the cut, In my short time collecting, I have seen not one 1916 standing liberty quarter, even on the various websites selling coins I have not seen one. I have seen a lot of the 1917's but not one of the 1916's. The reason I even looked for them is that I thought the design was better before they changed Liberty to wearing a chain mail blouse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe I should reread the rules, alright, done, I checked the redbook and it says that 52 thousand were minted, so it should be out there, like I said, I have only been really interested in coins for about the last 5 or 6 months. So I wont be surprised if ten people pop up and say hey you can find them all day long, I just have not seen any, maybe if I cruised heritage or ebay I would find some but for some reason I cannot trust myself around auctions, and it seems there is something about me when I go to an auction that makes someone adamant about buying something that makes the same effect in me, outbid me will they, lets see who can deplete their bank account more fully![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
