1923 Standing Liberty Quarter

The 1923 Standing Liberty Quarter had just over 9.7 million quarters struck at the Philadelphia Mint. There weren’t any Standing Liberty Quarters produced in the previous year, and the last one issued was the 1921 Standing Liberty Quarter. This coin can be found in many circulated and uncirculated grades, including some of the higher Mint State grades. Compared to some of the other Mint State coins in the series, this one is on the more affordable side, although still in the tens of thousands for some.
