Description
The 1929 (D) Standing Liberty Quarter is a quarter produced at the Denver Mint as part of the Standing Liberty Quarters 1916-1930 series. With a mintage of 1.4 million, this is a scarce issue — the lowest mintage among 3 mint variants, representing only 10% of total production. The obverse features Liberty standing in a gateway between two walls, holding an olive branch and a shield and the reverse displays an eagle in flight. Minted during and after World War I, as America emerged as a global power and experienced the prosperity of the Roaring Twenties. Struck at the Denver Mint, established in 1906 from an earlier assay office that processed Colorado gold rush metal. Estimated market value ranges from $20 to $292 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 6.3 grams, 24.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #5774.
