Own a piece of American history with this remarkable collection of three classic U.S. coins. Each coin is over 70 years old, and thus tells a unique story through their iconic designs that are rarely seen today.
This set includes the 1943 steel Lincoln Penny, the iconic one-year-only wartime issue struck in steel instead of copper due to wartime demands. Next is the Buffalo Nickel, which was a celebration of the American West designed by James Earle Fraser. Its obverse depicts a composite portrait of three Native American chiefs, while the reverse showcases Black Diamond, a famous buffalo from the New York Zoological Gardens. Completing the collection is the Mercury Silver Dime, mistakenly named for the Roman messenger god, but actually depicting Lady Liberty in a Phyrgian cap. Famously struck in 90% silver, this dime is a tiny reminder of the coinage of a byggone era.
These coins have been long removed from circulation, but represent a rare opportunity for collectors to own tangible pieces of American numismatic history. Each coin will be in collector's quality circulated condition, and the nickel and dime will have random dates. Don't miss this chance to bring this unique trio to your collection today!
