United States 20 cent pieces were minted briefly from 1875 to 1878 as part of an effort to eliminate the use of fractional currency. The coins were composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, featuring an obverse design of Liberty and a reverse adorned with a wreath and the denomination. Due to their limited production and unique design, 20 cent pieces are considered collectible and can be found in various grades, impacting their value significantly among numismatists. Their rarity and historical context contribute to their appeal in American numismatic collections.
