jprine Pillar of the Community United States 1599 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 10:01 pm I really like SLQ's but don't know much about them yet. I bought a bunch this weekend for less than $4.00 each. 1925 x 3 1927 x 4 1926 x 3 1926S x 1 1928 x 1 1928D x 1 1929 x 7 1929S x 3 1930 x 2 1930S x 1 no date x 4 My question-I think I recall that others have posted no date pics here and some of you experts were able to give an opinion of the date. Is there anything in particular I can look for to date the four I have without dates? Or did I just imagine this? Thanks Edited by jprine 04/21/2010 10:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff

johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 10:20 pm If the 4 dateless ones are type 1 quarters, they will have no stars beneath the eagle on the reverse. All 4 of the type 1s can have their date identified by die diagnostics/mm( either 1916, 1917, 1917-d, or 1917-s) even if no trace of a date is present. That is the only I can think of to look for.

afcop13 Pillar of the Community United States 1409 Posts	Posted 04/22/2010 08:13 am As mentioned above - stars on the obverse and mintmarks are the main obvious things. See the other threads on differentiating a 1916 from a 1917 Type 1. The dateless ones are pre 1925 about 80% of the time. Sometimes, under magnification you can make out the last number of the date which might enable you to make a determination. But many dateless (most) are so obliterated that you'll never know. Do not try any cleaning with any chemicals to aid this, you'll only destroy any value the coin may have. Good luck and welcome to the sickness. Report this Post to the Staff

jprine Pillar of the Community United States 1599 Posts	Posted 04/22/2010 9:24 pm All of the no-dates have stars below the eagle. Here is pic of the group. I swore off pics till I get a new camera (about two weeks) but here they are anyway. Report this Post to the Staff
