if you can, post pictures of the front of any dateless Standing Liberty quarters with no stars below the eagles tail. there are obvious die markers that tell if it is a 1917 or 1916. the odds of you having a 1916 is low but there is a big difference between a $2 dateless 1917 and a $300 dateless 1916. something to sort out with Washington quarters are so-called type B reverses. you can search online for pictures of a "type b Washington quarter" the dates to look at are 1956-1964. some are worth only a slight premium, but others are worth a good premium, especially if uncirculated or close to it. there is also a type c, but this is hard to notice unless you're used to looking at them.

I found the thread on the type B and type C. I have over $300 in 1964's though I haven't separated them by mint yet and also $25 in 1957's that need to be sorted. With the pictures on the other post it will give me something to watch for! They've been locked away in a paint bucket since about 1966 so maybe I'll hit it lucky! I am still working on getting clear pictures close up but will work ont he Standing Liberty quarters when I can.

I can't match the previous posts amount of silver. Last time I counted there were 61 silver 25¢ pieces. I've added a few since the picture was taken. Low date 1925 - high date 1964. All common dates and all circulated condition. Every coin was found in change, but it took about twenty years of searching. Image: SILVER25¢.jpg40.19 KB

Can some one help me locate a photo of the Washington quarter type c reverse, I have consulted the CherryPickers Guide and Red Book, etc and they do not show the full reverse of the type c coin.I am looking for a picture of the full reverse of the coin, thanks, Mike PS:Any site that would pertain to this would greatly be appreciated!!

Just compare to any 1965-1974 Washington reverse- those are the years that the Type C reverse was meant for.

There are some of the '65- '74 quarters with several different reverses. Additionally there were significant design changes in '69, '73, and '74.
If you're looking for the silver type "c's" your best bet might be to look at a '67 reverse. These are pretty cloce to the silvers and I don't think there are any reverse varieties for this date.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

I hope you are handling these gently and one coin at a time. Don't be like my Father-in-law and grab them by the handful and dump them in a jar and back onto the table 40 times. They'll be XF with lots of bag marks by then for sure!
