Talk:Standing Liberty Quarter

It was mentioned on the Coin Universe Forum that the Standing Liberty Quarter, designed by Hermon MacNeil and the third coin to be introduced in 1916, is the only 20th Century coin that was not issued in proof format. Why was that? The coin was minted during a period of time when no proofs were issued and if the Washington Quarter had remained a commemorative for 1932 only, as originally planned, the Standing Liberty would have resumed and we would have proofs. But, alas, that did not happen. A twist of fate. Something to think about. (Posted by James from a discussion with Garry Naples on LinkedIn)
