1917-D. Type 1
.
PCGS graded MS-66 Full Head
. The
Standing Liberty quarter was "intended to typify in a measure
the awakening interest of the country to its own protection,"
Mint Director von Engelken said at the time the coins first
appeared early in 1917. In the new design, Liberty is shown a
full-length figure, front view, with head turned toward the left,
breast exposed, stepping forward to the gateway of the country.
The left arm of the figure of Liberty is upraised, bearing the
shield in the attitude of protection, from which the covering is
being drawn. The right hand bears the olive branch of peace.
This is an impressive example, both sides are so smooth as to
be nearly in the Superb Gem category. Vibrant mint frost
throughout, with an otherwise brilliant sheen overall. Easily
among the most technically sound and visually appealing survi-
vors of both the issue and the type.
Pop 128; 28 finer, 6 in
66+, 21 in 67, 1 in 67+.

1917-S. Type 1

NGC graded MS-65

Gem is impressive in both its physical quality and its aesthetic

activity, and any mentionable marks are not seen. The overall
