1917-D Standing Liberty Quarter Type 1 25C Key Date Denver Mint NGC VF20

1917-D Type 1 Standing Liberty Quarter 

Own a true classic of American numismatics with this 1917-D Type 1 Standing Liberty Quarter, struck at the Denver Mint. As one of the most sought-after early Standing Liberty Quarter issues, the 1917-D Type 1 features the original design by Hermon A. Mac Neil, showcasing Liberty standing confidently with an exposed breast and carrying a shield of protection. This iconic design was modified later in 1917, making the Type 1 variety a short-lived and highly collectible U.S. coin.

With a relatively low mintage of just 1,509,200 pieces, the 1917-D Type 1 is considerably scarcer than its Philadelphia counterpart and remains a key semi-key date in the Standing Liberty Quarter series. Struck in 90% silver, this historic quarter combines intrinsic silver value with strong collector demand.

Collectors appreciate this issue for its classic artwork, low survival numbers, and importance within the Standing Liberty Quarter series. Whether you're building a type set, completing a Standing Liberty collection, or investing in better-date U.S. silver coinage, the 1917-D Type 1 represents an outstanding addition to any collection.
