Standing Liberty No Date Quarter HELP????

Nocerino18

I have several no date Type 1 Standing Liberty Quarters. Is there anyway whatsoever that anyone knows about bringing the date out so that it can be seen at all? Any help would be much appreciated. I am willing to try anything on these.

Yes, except it is not that worn, and it is a type 1 not a type 2.

Well - there is a way to tell whether a type I is a 1916 or not, by the placement of the right foot over the pedestal and where the robes fall in relation to her leg - I guess if it doesn't meet that criteria it must be a 1917, although I don't know that you would get that much over melt for a worn date SLQ

Jay Cline's book on SLQs explains how to ID a dateless 1916--one of the best diagnostics is the absence of reeding above the head.

If it's a 1916, The reed (the oblong shaped part of the decorative border inside the rim) above Liberty's head will be cut in half because her head extends into the border area. On the 1917 and later SLQ's, the head is a bit smaller and the reed is intact.
