The Standing Liberty Quarter was designed by sculptor Hermon Atkins MacNeil and minted from 1916 to 1930. The Standing Liberty design features the goddess of Liberty standing on one side and an eagle in flight on the other. There are a few design variations of the Standing Liberty Quarter. MacNeil’s militaristic design depicts Lady Liberty holding an olive branch and a shield on guard against attacks. The Mint required modifications to the initial design, and MacNeil’s revised version included dolphins to represent the oceans. In late 1916, Mint officials made major changes to the design without consulting MacNeil. After receiving the new issue in January 1917 the sculptor complained about the changes. The Mint obtained special legislation to allow MacNeil to redesign the coin as he desired. One change made by the sculptor was the addition of a chain mail vest that covered Liberty’s formerly bare breast. In circulation, the coin’s date wore away quickly so the mint modified the design with a recessed date in 1925.

These Standing Liberty Quarter coins are sold as cull/circulated coins. We do not cherry pick, look for key dates, or pull anything out unless it looks completely slick (no visible image). The condition and wear on these coins are completely random and can vary from coin to coin. It is possible the date marks may have partially or completely worn off due to the age of each specimen.
