I've been wanting to get a twenty cent piece to add to my coin collection.
What better time to get one than in 2020.
This is my only example and it's a recent Newp.
I tend to prefer AU coins, particularly with my budget in mind, and I felt like this example had a really nice combination of circulation and preservation.
Please, show off your twenty cent coins for 2020!

I know where that came from! Good choice and congrats!!
I can see why it stickered, it just has a good look to it. Great choice.
Here's a coin with a very similar look. I imagine I would like the price of yours much more.
Excellent coin, a real piece of history!!!
Only one I have in my type set.
OP, I really like the look of the coin, particularly the reverse.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

One of my very first coins was a a raw 20 cent piece in vf. I saved my allowance and bought it for $20 in the 90s. I sold it in college and bought beer with the money
BHNC #248 … 130 and counting.
Every Type Collection needs one of these double dimes!
I just checked, and the one above used to be mine.

Purchased as a VF for the Dansco back in the ‘80’s, where it has toned up nicely:
A 20 cent piece is probably what got me started collecting coins. My dad owned a coffee shop in lower Manhattan, and around 1960 or so, he brought home for me an 1875-S 20 cent piece that a customer used for payment, probably thinking it was a quarter. My guess is it was around VF.
Regardless, here’s my current one and only 20 cent piece in my collection, since I’m mainly a Type Set Collector:

Dark side version:
Pretty coins posted! I don't have a 20c though to share!
Not mine anymore, but I found this for a fellow board member a while ago.
Very dark side & chopped up
Staying local, I have a few. Does anyone else collect these by die variety?

Here’s mine pop 2 none higher!
My one and only:
It's currently in my Box of 5.
There are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who do not.
I just saw that Coin . A day ( week ... or month ) late and ... how much ,,,, guess I'll never know.
Good catch !
Got to be fast for those CRO Goodies.
My only one, bought raw ~14 years ago and resident in my 7070 since then.
