It has a Type 2 Obverse and Reverse that didn't start in this coin series until later in 1917. You may want to look at this thread from the Coin Community Forum: https://goccf.com/t/175572&SearchTerms=1916 br / Cheers! Moe Edited by Moe145 08/25/2014 7:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 4:51 pm Nice. I love it when sellers get the news that the coin they are listing is not what they say it is. Hopefully they listed it in ignorance, and not on purpose. Let us know if they respond. Report this Post to the Staff

I've corrected my post to the eBayer and above. Well done KKirby99! Edited by Moe145 08/26/2014 09:00 am Report this Post to the Staff

kkirby99 Valued Member United States 231 Posts	Posted 08/26/2014 09:44 am Seller now describes it as a 1917-M quarter. Dateless SLQ's are worth melt. Report this Post to the Staff
zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 08/26/2014 10:18 am Moe, Just tell him you're not interested. It's extremely common and worth melt anyway... Something along the lines of "Oh... I wasn't interested in purchasing to start with, I just wabted to inform you of the discrepancy to help you avoid issues in the future, by the way, this isn't a 1917-M either as there was never a "M" mintmark on US coins" - Moe Report this Post to the Staff

Another head's up for you: This Type 2/Pedestal date Standing Liberty quarter was minted from 1917-1924. Your quarter could be any of those dates, since the date is unreadable. Cheers! Moe Your quarter is worth close to silver melt price; around $2.00, best guess. Report this Post to the Staff
