Description du lot

1917-S Standing Liberty Quarter. Type II. MS-65 FH (NGC). Brilliant apart from the lightest golden tinting, this lustrous and smooth Gem also displays exceptionally full striking detail for an issue that is often poorly produced. The 1917-S Type II is rare in the Full Head category, with series expert J.H. Cline (2007) estimating that no more than 3% of the 5,552,000-piece mintage was sharply struck. This lovely Gem is a highlight of the Standing Liberty quarter offerings in the Vanderbilt Collection. Provenance: From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena's) Baltimore Auction of November 2009, lot 785; via Tom Panichella. PCGS# 5719. NGC ID: 2436. Click here for certification details from NGC.
