What is the value of an 1917 quarter?

Answer 1

Depends on which type, what condition, and where minted. If it's really very, very scruffy, and there's no detail on it at all, it's worth the silver value, which is the silver spot price times .1808 (which presently equals about $6.30). If it looks like it has hardly been circulated, then it can be worth hundreds. The chances are it's in average condition, and if it is type 1, where liberty exhibits a bare breast on the obverse, it will probably be worth about $30 to $60 dollars, depending on where it was minted and exactly how "average" the condition. Type 2, where she is not and the eagle, on the reverse, has three extra stars underneath it, it will be worth between $25 and $65, depending on where it was minted, and the exact "average" condition.
