The Twenty Cents coin, produced by the United States Mint, was issued primarily during the years 1875-1878. The 1875 Twenty Cents coin, minted in Philadelphia, is notable because it represents an attempt to establish a new denomination as the country faced inflation and changes in currency circulation. This coin features an obverse design with a profile of Liberty and a reverse design showcasing an eagle and a wreath, similar to other denominations of that period. Due to its limited mintage and short production period, the 1875 Twenty Cents coin is considered a scarce collectible sought after by numismatists.
