1920-D Standing Liberty Quarter
Mintage for Denver in this particular year ticked over to 3,586,400 pieces. There were storm clouds on the economic horizon, and in the next year, 1921, the country went into recession. This lasted for a year or two, then generally recovered by 1924. In that year and in 1925 there was wild speculation in Florida real estate, which did not last long. Prosperity was felt throughout the land, and many new office buildings, banks, and other structures were erected. Then came the wild speculation in stocks which lasted through the end of 1929.
The example to the left was sold by Stack's Bowers Galleries in the Larry H. Miller Collection, where it realized $36,000.
