What is a 1878-P Twenty Cent Coin?
The 1878-P Proof Twenty Cent Coin is a silver coin that was minted at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $0.20. As a "Proof" coin, it was produced in a limited quantity, which makes it considered more collectible than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for use in daily transactions. With such a low mintage of only 600, there are likely few of these items available for purchase or at auction in a year. This coin was the last one produced of the Twenty Cents series. This coin contains a moderate amount of silver at 4.50017 grams (0.14 oz. Adjusted Silver Weight).Coin Specifications
