I was driving by a town I hadn't been to before when I saw a sign saying "Coins" at an antique shop. Walker in and saw a small coin counter and one of the trays had an array of what looked like junk silver sorted by type such as Mercuries, Rosies, Standing Liberties, a few Barber coins and Washington quarters. They were going for 16x face and I asked to look through the tray. When I got to the Standing Liberties, I saw about 10 dateless ones, 4 or 5 later ones with dates, and this...
Calmly I picked it out, added a couple others and a couple Mercuries, and walked out with a big smile on my face 😎

Thanks Frank! I didn't even know it was a type 1 or had an S mintmark till I looked at it later. I just saw 1917 and quickly put it in my pile to take along. Can't wait for that Cha Ching!
