1875-1878 Twenty Cent Silver Seated Liberty Good

Product Description

The short supply of five and ten cent pieces in the Old West during the 1870s gave birth to another oddity of U.S. coinage: the here-and-gone 1875-1878 Seated Liberty silver twenty cent coin. While the denomination made logical sense, its nearness in both size and appearance to the circulating quarter led to its swift demise – business strikes were produced in 1875 and 1876, followed by two years of proof-only issues. Good quality. Our choice of date based on availability.
