 “1915-D” (type-1), “1922”, “1931-S” Standing Liberty Silver Quarter Dollars – Production Blog

 

All are over-struck on genuine US Mint Standing Liberty silver quarter dollars (circa 1917-1930), unless otherwise noted.
Some were broad-struck and/or multiply struck with moderate shift between strikes.

 

The 1931 Standing Liberty silver quarter dollar is a coin that almost was. The US Mint performed preliminary preparations to mint them, but none were ever released and none are believed to exist.

Standing Liberty quarters were originally minted for circulation from 1916 to 1930. None were originally minted with 1915, 1922, or 1931 dates.
