The 1917 Standing Liberty Quarter Type 1 stands as a hallmark of early twentieth-century U.S. coinage, reflecting the era’s emphasis on bold artistic expression in everyday currency. This issue belongs to the Standing Liberty series, which quickly became admired for its powerful imagery and remains one of the most sought-after designs among collectors today. Hermon MacNeil’s obverse presents Liberty striding forward, while the reverse displays a flying eagle in full flight.
Struck in 90% silver and 10% copper with a weight of 0.18084 troy ounces, the coin embodies the classic composition and proportions that define the series. Collectors value the 1917 Type 1 as an accessible entry point into a favorite type set, drawn by the series’ historical resonance and the enduring appeal of its key dates such as the 1916 and 1918/7-S. Its devoted following stems from the design’s timeless presence and the satisfaction of completing a representative example from this distinctive period.
