Collectible coins are often categorized based on their historical significance, rarity, and condition. In the United States, popular denominations include the 1 cent (penny) and the 50 cent (half dollar) coins, which can feature various designs and mint marks. Mint sets, such as those from 1955, include uncirculated coins from that year and are packaged directly from the U.S. Mint, making them desirable for collectors. These sets often contain coins from different denominations, showcasing both the artistry and the numismatic value of the coins produced in that year.
