My first 20 cent piece :)
A newp for me purchased from LordM
My first of the type, going into my 7070.
I couldn't be happier with it!
Give me your opinions please (and maybe an estimated grade?) and post your own 20c pieces if you like

It’s very nice looking!
Here’s mine, yours looks slightly better than my 12, so I’d say yours is a 15
Mr_Spud
Nice one @WilliamF —she has a wholesome look
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Yeah, that's a nice one! I could see it grading 12 or 15
Congrats! Love the odd denominations. I have a very worn out one, on the lookout for a mint state version.
LOVE the double-dime!

Good choice, nice circ look to it.
Nice - I've yet to add one to my 7070

Cool, I never though of it as that... it's 4/5 of a quarter

Very nice! Lord M is a good friend.
Funny, I got my very first 20 cent piece just this past Tuesday!
Congratulations!

F12, nice original look.
My 7070 example, purchased as an old school VF probably around 1986 or so. It’s the 1875P, with PL fields and vibrant toning and luster I couldn’t capture. I wouldn’t want to have to buy it in today’s market:
Congratulations ☺️ Ice pickup and just because of ex LordM …… almost a pedigree in itself that’s how much respect we have for @lordmarcovan 🥰❤️
@WilliamF ... Very nice coin... Shows commerce, and I am sure those coins were well used during that period. Cheers, RickO
Nice coin! I like the look with the highlighted devices. Thanks for posting!

@WilliamF , a great pickup for your Dansco 7070 - a real nice, problem-free coin.
Just throwing out an idea for others: A collector can choose to go beyond having just one as a Type coin, as there are only four coins in total to complete a Twenty Cent business strike set (no proofs). When I was looking for something new to collect, in general I try to stay away from series that require a large number of coins. This fit the bill, as only four coins are required. There are currently 63 collectors participating in this Registry set.

Nice example. I have yet to find a 20 cent that I like for my set. Congrats!

Cool coins, nice example. I've contemplated putting together a matching set of the 4 achievable ones but never got around to it.
Actually there are five coins in the true business strike set.
The four coin version is the Registry set that excludes the 1876-CC.
I imagine the four coin version is a concession to people who like to reach 100% completion,
and prefer not to compete with people who can afford the 1876-CC.
There are still around 20 people who participate in the five coin Registry set.
I'm sure you already knew this, but it looked awkward to possibly suggest that excluding the proofs yielded four coins.
Probably you didn't intend exactly that.
Great looking coin, Lord M. has an eye for quality.
This 1875-P came from a collector who had purchased it from M. Feld during his dealer days
Yes, you are correct. However, since there are only about 20 known coins in this 1876-CC date in all grades combined, with the lowest known PCGS grade being AU58 with a PCGS Price Guide value of $235,000 in that lowest grade, I figured I would mention the four coin set to hopefully encourage some collectors to participate in this series. But you are correct, as I should have said only four coins are needed to complete that four coin Twenty Cent Registry set.
