The 1928 Standing Liberty Quarter Denver Mint is an ideal branch mint type coin for the series. Collectability begins in the AU range and remains very accessible up until MS66. MS66 and any finer are considered scarce. This issue comes with a very weak strike although there is quality luster and, in some cases, beautiful toning.
