The problem with Standing Liberty was its poor relief. The coins wore down very easily.

My late father said that as teenagers his generation would stroke Lady Liberty's bare breast because that was as close as they were going to get to the real one.

I call it the Janet Jackson quarter.

Heh, I like that, the "Janet Jackson Quarter"...

And you're right, unfortunately that coin was a poor design for general circulation. I have a couple of them in near-uncirculated condition.
