The shield rivits of the standing liberty quarterare not a good tool for determining grade right. Let me hear your comments.

A good example can be seen on the 1917-D I posted recently for grading....two weak rivets,but most were grading AU...they say it is common on the SLQ's

The 1916 is especially notable for weak rivets.

Shield rivets do matter when grading, you just have to take into consideration that they are usually weakly struck.

I would say you should discount for weak rivets, but strong rivets should hold a little premium.

I agree strong rivets are good for the value

Although weak strikes on the SLQs are very common, Stronger rivets mean a better strike and the price can go through the roof!
