1918/7-S Standing Liberty Quarter. FS-101. MS-64 (PCGS). Here is an outstanding example of the greatest major variety in the 1916 to 1930 Standing Liberty quarter series. Lustrous and visually appealing, both sides offer a bright silver-white appearance to satiny surfaces. The detail to Libertys head is about 60-70% full and the all-important 7 underdigit is bold and clear. As one of the highest graded survivors of a prized overdate, this handsome near-Gem will be an important addition to an advanced Standing Liberty quarter set.<p>The 1918/7-S was created when Mint personnel reworked a leftover 1917-dated quarter die for use the following year. This was done in the Philadelphia Mint, where all dies were prepared at that time. Once on the West Coast, this overdate die struck an unknown, although presumably small number of the 11,072,000 quarters attributed to the San Francisco Mint in 1918. Although the overdate feature is quite bold and easily discerned with the naked eye, it escaped the attention of numismatists until 1937, by which time the vast majority of examples had entered circulation. Scarce even in worn condition, the 1918/7-S is very rare in Mint State. A leading highlight of the Standing Liberty quarters in this sale, and an important bidding opportunity for astute collectors. PCGS# 5726. NGC ID: 243A. PCGS Population: 33; 7 finer in this category (MS-66 finest).
