Check out this poor man's Standing Liberty quarter from ebay.
I guess this may be the only way for most of us
to get a 1916.
It is listed as "laser engraved".
Here is the actual auction:

Could be any date; the date numerals have been stamped in incuse, not relief.

There never was the chance for bare boobs to be seen on this coin!

And don't forget the three stars under the eagle.
They aren't on real 1916 SLQ's.
So he didn't even use a Variety 1 to make it.
Most likely a Variety 2 (1917-1924).

The starting price was well below melt. So if you can get it for melt, it is an amusing novelty.
