Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 11:29 am Quote: The "key" to this short-lived series is the 1916, thanks to its low mintage of only 52,000 coins. Adding design changed from type 2a to type 2b in 1925. Date was recessed to help prevent wearing. Thanks, Doug. http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Hierar...erty+Quarter Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 11:37 am Thanks Coop for the difference pictorals. Been wondering just what those fine points were, knew the "stars" trick of the reverses, but not the date references. Much needed reference! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 11:50 am So the images were from ebay on the circulated quarters saying they are 16 or 17. So what are they for sure? Let's see if you know? Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 1:42 pm All three example pix are 1917 T-1's I think. Hair tail sharp(thin), rivets solid and no stars below eagle on reverse. Did I get that right? Edited by Crazyb0 06/30/2018 1:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 3:38 pm Correct. The rivets were my first clue. Report this Post to the Staff
Roro57 Valued Member Canada 195 Posts	Posted 06/30/2018 9:35 pm So I have these three heavily worn quarters, one from each mint, from what I have picked up on this informative thread I can see that they are all 1917 T1's. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 08:51 am You've figured it out. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5676 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 3:05 pm Thanks, that's great information! The head position and strength of the rivets are especially helpful. Here's a dateless 1916 SLQ for comparison: Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 4:16 pm So how did he know it is a 1916? Class... Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDollar2017 Pillar of the Community United States 8715 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 4:25 pm Quote: So how did he know it is a 1916? Class... The head is touching the rim. The hair "tail" is also wider than the 1917 Type I. Report this Post to the Staff
Roro57 Valued Member Canada 195 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 5:27 pm I agree, definitely thicker hair tail. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 6:18 pm So the thread helps. Thanks. Also the rivets are weak so with the type 1 reverse, we've nailed it. Report this Post to the Staff
