The coin in question is a 20-cent piece from the 1891 Hawaii series, minted in Philadelphia, United States of America. This particular coin represents a unique chapter in American numismatic history, specifically connected to the Hawaiian Islands before their annexation. Despite its denomination of 20 cents, it holds historical significance due to its association with Hawaii during a time of transition. The coin has a diameter of 27 mm and does not specify its weight, although it is crafted from an unspecified material and features no mint mark, suggesting it was produced in standard Mint Strikes at the Philadelphia Mint. While the coin's designer is listed as 'N/A', its place in numismatic collections is enhanced by its rarity, as indicated by an mintage value of ‘0’, which means it was either not produced in a significant quantity or is primarily recorded in numismatic references as not circulated widely. The absence of detailed production characteristics, such as edge type or specific weight, may suggest that it was part of a numismatic collection or an unexplored area of coinage. Overall, this 1891 Hawaii 20-cent coin is not just a monetary piece but a tangible artifact of a unique historical and cultural period, making it a prized item for collectors specializing in Hawaiian or American coins.
