Should I send this SL twenty five cent piece to get graded?


Still working on the new camera ( Nikon 995 ) would you send this coin for slabbing? And if so what would you grade it?TIA

Most Type 1 1917 Standing Lib quarters have a Full Head. It was only after the U.S. mint people got to messing with the design that the really serious strike problems became common.
The 1917 quarters do have a different surface (as do all silver coins from this era) than the later coins, but it looks really pronounded on this one. I agree with the others that there might be something wrong here.

I hope for you it is really just bad lighting/photo, and a great coin!
The last sentence in the description of the Standing Liberty Quarter Dollar in the Red Book of 2007 says:
"No Proof coins of this type were officially issued, but specimen strikings of the first variety, dated 1917, are known to exist.
this is a great place for information, but sometimes.... it is wise to dismiss all advice and do the very thing you wonder if you should do.....for what it's worth
I don't know, but those are my thoughts on it.
I recently contacted the author of the attached link as we briefly exchanged ideas about the moves he made in accordance with advice given. Just follow your hunch !
Food for thought
I am not flaming anyone, just trying to see OBJECTIVELY through the strangeness of the PERFECTION of this specimen. It does invoke WONDER.
