[GRADE REVEALED] GTG - 1928 Standing Liberty Quarter
My first SLQ! I haven’t shown this on the forums that much for whatever reason so I thought I’d do a GTG on it. Good luck!
Grade will be revealed after 24 hours or 25 guesses, whichever comes first.

Looks like AU55 to me, but would not be shocked at all for AU58.
By the way I absolutely adore the SLQ series.

I was going with AU55 too yet with so many already guessing that, I'll go with AU53.

I'll say 58 looks like some rub on the forward leg.

58 and attractive, although there is something going on on the obverse surfaces in the field below/beside TY and along the right side of the drapery ... and the reverse stain at ICA is slightly unfortunate.

Very nice, love seeing SLQ's !

MANY years ago, I was taught by an old time dealer that SLQs should not be graded looking directly at the coin flatly. He said to get the best view of wear on a SLQ to hold the coin upright and look from the top down for wear on both sides. I have always bought BU SLQs by viewing and grading them this way.

For purposes of grading, coins should be tilted and rotated under a good light.

Wow, that's about as close to a Full Head you can get and not receive the FH designation. Nice coin.

I would have guessed AU58 yet so many others already did (including cougar) so I went with a grade I deep down didn't believe in.

This is one of my favorite kind of days. I spend 10 minutes looking at an amazing coin; only to find another and another etc. Congrats @Goob, and @SilverDaddy , 1917-D (and S), type 1's are one of my all time favorite coins. Brings back some great memories, but mine were AU's rather than lofty Unc.'s. James
