1875 San Francisco(S) Liberty Seated Twenty Cent Piece in Good to Very Good Condition
The 1875-S Liberty Seated Twenty Cent Piece is a significant coin in American numismatics. It was minted at the San Francisco Mint and is part of the short-lived series of twenty-cent coins issued by the United States Mint from 1875 to 1878. These coins were introduced as a response to the need for a coinage denomination that was similar in size to the quarter but could be distinguished easily from the silver quarter.
