In looking at this present SLQ, to my mind, there was just not quite enough metal left to fill the head after filling the rest of the design to the extent that is has. This non-FH SLQ has a nipple that is so strong that it is a point sticking out of the breast; and the areola around the nipple is very plain. According to Breen, this is only seen on the strongest strikes, yet this coin is not greaded a full head! Perhaps, we should change the designation for full strikes from full head to full nipple. (Perhaps I should bring this up on a medical newsgroup)

My wife went to the Co-op last night to get some groceries, and she got a SLQ in her change. Why the cashier didn't notice it was different from the rest, I don't know. The only thing I can figure is, she probably thought it was a Canadian quarter.

Isn't the SLQ identifiable by the length of the skirt line? 1916 only (if I am not on Quaaludes)

Aside from the two I purchased for my type set, I own three SLQ's, I think.

In an episode which originally aired on February 3, 1961, titled 'A Penny for Your Thoughts', the main character (played by Dick York) throws a quarter into a coin box to pay for a newspaper. In a close up of the coin box I see a Standing Liberty Quarter, a Walking Liberty Half and a Buffalo Nickel. In 1961, I was too young to have any interest in circulating coinage. I'll have to assume these coins were still common in circulation through 1961 since their appearance played no significance in the plat of the show. I'm a little surprised by the SLQ at that date though.

SLQs were common, but the only ones with dates that you'd see were the 1925-1930 dates (the date was more well-protected from 1925-on). I don't think I ever found an SLQ pre-1925 with a readable date, but there were a lot of dateless ones circulating.

I do like SLQs, but, I think I have to go with the Oregon Trail half dollar.
