    It's a Quarter Rick. ;) I don't know the story on the different size mint marks.

    Nice Variety! Yours is a Late Die State with die chip bridging the Mint Mark and Tail.

    The Small D is the one used on cents 1911-on, nickels 1912-on, Dimes and halves 1916-on and quarters 1917-on. Not sure on the gold without looking. I suspect that in 1916 an Engraver doing dime and half Dies used that punch on a quarter die before being told to keep using the old large D.
