Description

1916 Standing Liberty Quarter, MS63
Nearly Full Head

1916 25C MS63 NGC. The qualifications for Full Head differ between the 1916 and 1917 Type One Standing Liberty quarters due to an entirely different hair style. The 1917 issue must have bold curls along the entire hairline that sharply separate from the face. The 1916, however, must only exhibit all of the thin hair strands that reside in the same place. Many non-Full Head pieces are arguably sharp enough to be designated Full Head, although the absence of one or two strands prevents that classification at the grading services. This is an example of "close but no cigar" in terms of head detail, and for most collectors it is plenty sharp to satisfy a quality collection. The champagne-tinged surfaces exhibit satiny luster and are remarkably devoid of significant abrasions. Eye appeal is excellent. Census: 59 in 63 (2 in 63+), 96 finer (8/22).(Registry values: N2998)
