Get ready for one of the coolest and shortest-lived denominations in U.S. history — a genuine 1875-S Seated Liberty Twenty Cent Piece! This oddball coin was minted for only four years (1875–1878) and was a commercial flop because it looked way too similar to the quarter. Most got melted down, making survivors highly desirable today. Coin Highlights: • Year: 1875 • Mint: San Francisco (S mintmark) • Mintage: 1,155,000 — the most common (and most collectible) date in the series • Designer: Christian Gobrecht • Composition: 90% Silver / 10% Copper • Obverse: Seated Liberty with shield and liberty pole — classic and beautiful • Reverse: “TWENTY CENTS” inside a stunning wreath The 1875-S is the go-to coin for type collectors wanting to represent this fascinating series. It offers excellent eye appeal, strong historical significance, and that premium silver content collectors love. Whether you’re building a type set or just adding to your Seated Liberty collection, this is it
