The 1917 Type 1 Quarter is one of the great type coins from the era. This is due to the fact that the only other year of the type is the rare 1916. Thus, both coins are extremely desirable. The 1917 is scarcer than later issues, in circulated grades, yet still considered common. In Mint State, this issue is plentiful in MS60 through MS65. Scarcity for this date is only found in MS66 and finer.
