Coin World Edior-at-Large Steve Roach (RoachDotSteve) last week made the rounds at the Central States Numismatic Society convention in Schaumburg, IL, where he came across an example of the second gold centennial edition of a classic 1916 coin from the United States Mint — the Standing Liberty quarter dollar.

He shared the image on his Twitter page.

The 2016-W Standing Liberty quarter-ounce quarter dollar is composed of 24-karat gold.
