When I started my set number of years ago, it was meant to be on the cheaper side. raw coins, the look of old silver, not much more desired then a full date. With time I started looking for a bit more shield detail, more full feathers, a touch of luster. With all but three slots filled, the set is a lot more XF-MS than I envisioned. But some would always be an exception , including the 1921. I’m happy to find one with a pretty solid date in a grade range that still doesn’t give me heart burn to add to album. Currently in PCGS plastic as F15, it will be joining the album soon

Nice wholesome coin there! Great job. Would be great to see album pics!
I like it. I like the look.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
I always liked the 1921. Yours has nice, honest wear, with enough of the coin there to look decent.

That looks like a really nice coin and would be spectacular left in the slab or placed raw in an album.

That is a great series and a nice wholesome coin. I’m sure it will appreciate the freedom
I remember picking a 1921, that would probably grade about a 3, from a bag in the early 1960's.
Very nice! And the date is strong for the grade I believe. I was about to say that it's a "wholesome" example, however @ThreeCentSilverFL beat me to it.
That's a great example! The 21 space in my circulated set remains hollow. Would love to find one like that!
Nice and original looking piece.
I came from a family that collected coins. But most if not all coins were collected out of circulation. I inherited no UNC MS coins. Coin collecting in that era was more about searching bank rolls and he excitement of finding a new coin. Now we are focused on graded quality and buy our coins from dealers and auctions.
Thanks for your post @ad4400 as it reminds some of us what coin collecting was all about.

Very nice old SLQ... Circulated silver makes a really nice collection....It was standard when I was a kid....Cheers, RickO

Nice pick up.
About 1998 I picked up a 1921 in low grade, last digit from junk silver --
I got it slabbed. Now in a G-04 slab

Beautiful example. I've always consider the SLQ the finest design of any U.S. coin. Love your 1921. Well done!

Congratulations. I like it a lot. the obverse of the SLQ is my favorite design of any US coin.
it's crackers to slip a rozzer the dropsy in snide
Congrats - a super, fun series to collect.
There is also a die variety of this coin that has a die crack running from the rim to the eagle's feather.
It appears just to the left of the "U" in UNUM.

Slabbed for authentication , full date for sure. final grade TBD. Need to figure out what is available, feasible. I’ve worked on all my sets as matter of years. I’ll figure it out
