Notes: The 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter Dollars are very very very rare. Just over 50,000 of them were ever minted, and it is certain that many of those have been melted down. The Bald Eagle is on the reverse and there are NO stars under the eagle this year. When the coin was redesigned the eagle was moved up slightly and 3 stars were placed below it. Look out for fakes or replicas!
