Standing Liberty Quarter Set Completed.

Bocephus - check the other threads regarding 1916's, especially the one that Nod started and the 4-5 page one regarding Johnny's.

I thought I would discuss briefly my dream 1916 quarter. This was conservately graded at G-4 by PCGS. It sold on Heritage, and then resold several months ago on ebay...both around the $2700. I remember seeing it and was considering selling some gold to raise enough to purchase it....but I let it slip away I still regret not going for it. This to me is the pinnacle of GOOD for this coin as far as affordability is concerned. Talk about eye appeal for the grade! It is a work of art! Yes this one, I would sacrafice for if it ever came up again for auction.

Yeah, every time I look at it, I drool. It's one of those "shoulda woulda coulda" coins....

You know I'm going to outbid you on that 1919 D simply out of spite now. Right?

LOL - just kidding. I've been watching the two that are going soon though.....both prices are already jacked up.

By the way - congrats on filling each hole so dang quick! There are some great finds in there, with the two most obvious being the 23S and 16.

Wow, so when do you think that 19-D's going to come along?

I especially like the 17-S Type 2, I'm having a difficult time finding one.

I feel it is important to note that Whitman makes both albums (where one can see both sides) and folders (can only see one side).

The Whitman albums are very similar to the Dansco, but slightly smaller and includes notches on the page edge to easily remove the plastic slides.


That said, I am very impressed with your SLQ collection!

I should have also said this was directed at the casual reader, and not necessarily at you. I know some of the newer collectors have been confused by 'albums v. folders' in the past.

Some very nice looking original coins in there. I haven't seen a coin on any auction site or either of my dealers in about 2 weeks that fits what I need and can afford......so my acquisitions have slowed way down.
