Grading Liberty Standing Quarters Grading standards for Liberty Standing Quarters from Good to Extra Fine.
The first Liberty Standing Quarter was issued in 1916. The obverse depicted a full frontal pose of Liberty holding in her right hand, an olive branch symbolizing peace and on her left arm, a raised shield symbolizing protection. The reverse design was an eagle in flight.
The first minting of the Liberty Standing Quarter, 1916 through the first part of 1917, are called Variety I or Type I.
In 1917, midway through the second year of minting, legislation was passed to alter the coin. The changes supposed to be: "...the modifications shall consist of changing the position of the eagle, the rearrangement of the stars and lettering, and a slight concavity given to the surface". The legislation further specified that: "...no change shall be made in the emblems of devices used."
However, when the new version of the coin was released, it was immediately apparent that substantial, unauthorized (and therefore illegal) alterations had been made to the design. The most noticeable of these was the covering of Liberty's exposed right breast with chain mail. This was done under pressure from a small, narrow minded, but vocal, segment of the population.
The modifications include the "covering" of Liberty, raising of the eagle and the lettering directly above, addition of three stars below the new eagle, the reduction in the number of stars around the eagle, and concaving of the surface. The subsequent minting of these coins from 1917 to 1930 are referred to as Variety II or Type 2.
In 1925, the pedestal, upon which Liberty stands, was recessed to prevent the date from wearing so rapidly; but, the change was so minor that no new design type is recognized.
The Liberty Standing Quarter was designed by Herman A. MacNeil. His initial 'M' appears on the obverse just above and to the right of the date.
The Liberty Standing Quarter was composed of 90% Silver and 10% Copper. Since pure silver is very soft, copper was added to all circulating silver coins to harden them and prevent excessive wear. Liberty Standing Quarters had a weight of 6.25 grams, a diameter of 24.3mm, a reeded edge. The edges of most silver coins were reeded to make evident any attempt to shave silver off the coin.
The Liberty Standing Quarter was struck in Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco.
T.1 Type 1 or Variety I, (see explanation paragraph 2 above).
T.2 Type 2 or Variety II, (see explanation paragraph 3-5 above).
D (Denver): The 'D' mint mark is located on the obserse to the left of the date.
S (San Francisco): The 'S' mint mark is located on the obserse to the left of the date.
Note: Liberty Standing Quarters struck in Philadelphia bear no mint mark.
