Design and Specifications of the 1924 Quarter
The 1924 Standing Liberty Quarter was part of a series that began in 1916, replacing the Barber Quarter. This coin design was notable for its artistic merit and symbolism, reflecting America's stance during World War I. The obverse featured Liberty holding a shield and olive branch, while the reverse depicted an eagle in flight.
By 1924, the design had already undergone modifications, with Liberty's exposed breast being covered in 1917 and the reverse design slightly altered to improve strike quality.

Rarity Factors and Value Drivers
The condition of 1924 Standing Liberty Quarters significantly impacts their value. These coins were prone to wear, particularly on Liberty's head and the date. Well-struck examples with full head details are highly prized and command substantial premiums.
Coins in Mint State grades, especially MS65 and above, are scarce and valuable. The presence of original mint luster and absence of significant contact marks greatly enhance desirability and value.

Strike quality is a crucial factor for Standing Liberty Quarters. Coins with full head details (FH) on Liberty are particularly sought after and can command significant premiums.
Original toning can add to a coin's appeal and value, especially if it's attractive and even. However, any signs of cleaning or harsh treatment can severely diminish value.
For the 1924 issue, Denver and San Francisco mint coins are generally more valuable than Philadelphia issues in comparable grades due to lower mintages and survival rates.
