This listing is for the photographed 1917 Standing Liberty Quarter. VF Details, likely cleaned at some point.

On condition of Standing Liberties in general:
Standing liberty quarters are notoriously missing dates with many of the high relief features worn off during circulation. Unfortunately, many of the coins no longer have a visible date.
Notice the detail on the shield. This is one of the primary indicators of condition for this coin. Most in average conditions do not have any remaining detail on the shield. In commonly worn conditions, the shield, the drape below the shield, and the body of Lady Liberty have been blended together over time.

History:
The Standing Liberty quarter is a 25-cent coin that was struck by the United States Mint from 1916 to 1930. In 1915, Director of the Mint Robert W. Woolley began steps to replace the Barber dime, quarter, and half dollar, as he mistakenly believed that the law required new designs. Eventually, the result was this design issued soon after.

In circulation, the coin's date wore away quickly, and Mint engravers modified the design in 1925 to address the issue. The Standing Liberty quarter was discontinued in 1931, a year in which no quarters were struck. By Congressional act the Washington quarter, featuring the first president's profile, was introduced in 1932 to celebrate the bicentennial of his birth.
