Grandmas closet find

[TarheelPanner]

I had to go help babysit my baby cousin this morning and before I left my Grandmother told me to take the velvet bag on the counter. She said she found it in her closet and had "some old coins" in it and that I would probably like it. The majority of it is foreign currency and the real keepers of the bunch are a 1921 Morgan, a 1917 Mercury, and either a 1916 or 1917 version 1 Standing Liberty. I cant exactly tell.

And you didn't even have to get dirty
Many SL qtrs I have and seen are worn in the same manner.

Very nice! Would take a gift like that any day. It looks like 1917 liberty.

Hmmm, a 1916 SLQ would be quite a nice find indeed!

Sweet! Are you going to throw them out in the yard so you can find them with your detector?

Just so you know, I made that comment about the 1916-17 quarter because even in that very low-grade a 1916 SLQ can be worth over $1000 as there were only 52,000 made.
