This year marks the 225th anniversary of the United States Mint.
To mark this milestone, they are introducing the 225th Anniversary
Enhanced Uncirculated Coin Set.
This coin set contains 10 coins with an enhanced uncirculated
finish using a combination of laser frosted areas and an unpolished
field that accentuates design details, creating a unique contrast
distinctly different from the mirror–like finish of proof coins. Each
coin bears the “S” mint mark of the United States Mint in San Francisco.
Included in this set are:
