The 20 cents coin, also known as the twenty-cent piece, was minted in the United States primarily in 1875 and is considered a relatively rare collectible. The Philadelphia Mint produced patterns and trial coins for this denomination, which were used to evaluate its design and feasibility. The 20-cent piece was intended to simplify transactions, but its short production period and limited circulation contribute to its scarcity and desirability among collectors today.
