As Philadelphia minted Standing Liberty Quarters go, the 1918 is one of the most scarce in high grades. Scarcity begins at the gem level and becomes truly rare in MS67 and finer. The only problem with this issue being how weak the strikes are. However, they do come with quality luster and, in some cases, beautiful toning.
