Beginning in 1916, following the Barber Series, came the Standing Liberty Quarters with the designer’s initial (M) placed on the obverse. The most popular and distinctive attribute of the Type 2 (which lasted from 1916-1917) was Liberty’s exposed breast being covered with armor. Another diagnostic of the type is the addition of three stars depicted below the Eagle on the reverse. All mintmarks are located on the obverse. This type also possesses scarcer dates like the 1918/7-S, 1921, 1923-S and 1927-S.
Obverse Description
MacNeil's Liberty stands with one hand holding an olive branch, the other bearing a shield. A ribbon connects the branch to the shield. The world LIBERTY appears across the top periphery and the date is centered at the bottom. 13 stars appear to the side of Liberty. Mint mark, if any, is positioned above the date to the left of Liberty.
Reverse Description
An eagle in full flight, facing right, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA above the great raptor. Stars flank the left and right peripheries with the words QUARTER DOLLAR at the bottom.
