Standing Liberty Quarters
1918/7-S 25C FS-101 MS62 NGC. Series specialist J.H. Cline deems the 1918/7-S quarter essential for a complete collection, since it is the only overdate in the series and is prominently listed among the regular issues in the Guide Book. The typical representative is well-worn, as the variety was not discovered until the late 1930s. By that time many examples had their dates worn beyond recognition, further decreasing the already small supply. An XF or AU example is usually considered upper-end for the issue, and Mint State representatives are decidedly rare. This is a bright, sparkling Mint State example with almost no color apparent. The fields show the typically seen die striations, nearly half of Liberty's head detail is present, and the underdigit is bold. Census: 19 in 62, 28 finer (11/16).
