    THANK YOU !!!!!

    I wish I had those images when I was a teenager going thru rolls
    of silver quarters. I came upon so many dateless Type One's -
    and I couldn't tell a 16 from a 17 without an actual dated example
    in front of me.

    Great work! Now we just need to create one that gradually "morphs" from the 1916 to 1917. ;-)

    What are the actual diagnostics, other than the inner shield, the head into the border, and the flatness of the garment over her right biceps. That's all I know and would appreciate any additional diagnostics.
    Thanks

    Check the oval fold just above the 19. It appears more closed and flat on the 1916.

    Actually this is a really great way to note the subtle differences in the diework between the 1916 and 1917 Type 1 coins. Thanks for showing us this!

    I worked a long time on that, I hope someone saves it and puts it on a website somewhere.

    I am not an expert on these, but I think the 6 and 7 are the easiest diagnostics to identify.image

    Not when the coins are so worn that the date doesn't show. And at that point, there are still other diagnostics that do show.

    Not to mention being able to tell altered dates by looking at the other diagnostics.

    thanks for all the effort

    it would be nice in a FR-02 or a P-01 where most people are scratching their heads

    Nice post. As others have mentioned, it would be very informative to see dateless ones morph. And maybe a set of VFs, VGs, and AGs to watch them wear. Endless possibilities for your talent. Thanks.

    The diagnostic I find most useful (especially for very worn or dateless coins) is the shape of the curve of the bottom of the gown outside liberty's right foot. I keep hoping to spot a dateless, slabbable 1916.

    I was able to save it-just because I think it's cool. Great job!

    It's tricking my brain into hearing it switch, but only when it switches to the 1916
