Description: The Type 2 obverse of the Standing Liberty quarter dollar. This obverse was used for quarters minted from the latter part of 1917 through 1930. From 1917-1924 the design had a raised date notorious for rubbing off quickly when circulated. The design was modified slightly in 1925 so that the date was set deeper in the design and would wear less. This coin was minted at the Denver Mint, and the "D" mint mark is just above the date and to the left of Liberty's foot. This coin is graded as MS63 by PCGS, and it received the "FH" or full-head designation, as the head of Miss Liberty is fully struck and exhibits a full hair line and the hole of the ear is visible.
