The Standing Liberty Quarter is a U.S. coin that was minted from 1916 to 1930, featuring a design by sculptor Hermon Atkins MacNeil. The obverse depicts a figure of Liberty holding a shield and an olive branch, while the reverse showcases an eagle. The 1917 issue is notable for its transition from the "Type 1" design, which had a bare-breasted Liberty, to the "Type 2" design with Liberty more modestly depicted. This quarter is highly sought after by collectors due to its artistic design and limited mintage.
