A Treasure Trove of 90% Silver American Coinage

Secure a complete dual-mint collection from 1962 with this official U.S. Mint 10 Coin Set, featuring six coins struck in 90% silver. This set represents the final years of America's traditional silver coinage era, capturing both Philadelphia and Denver Mint production in pristine uncirculated condition—a cornerstone piece for any serious silver or Franklin Half Dollar collector.

What Makes This Set Special

  • Complete 10-coin dual-mint set: Philadelphia and Denver Mint cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, and Franklin Half Dollars
  • 90% silver content in six coins: two Roosevelt Dimes, two Washington Quarters, and two Franklin Half Dollars
  • Original Government Packaging (OGP): Coins housed in official mint packaging
  • Uncirculated condition: Coins never released into general circulation, preserving original mint luster
  • Historic Franklin Half Dollars: Features the beloved Franklin design in its penultimate year before the Kennedy Half Dollar
  • Dual-mint representation: Both P and D mint marks represented across all denominations
  • Substantial precious metal value: Significant silver weight adds intrinsic value beyond numismatic premium

The Artistry Behind the Coins

Obverse: This set showcases the iconic portraits that defined mid-century American coinage—Lincoln's dignified profile on the cent, Jefferson's stately visage on the nickel, Roosevelt's resolute countenance on the dime, Washington's commanding presence on the quarter, and John Sinnock's masterful rendering of Benjamin Franklin on the half dollar. Each portrait captures the character and legacy of these American leaders, rendered with the precision and artistry that made these designs enduring classics.

Reverse: The reverses present a gallery of American symbolism—the Lincoln Memorial's neoclassical grandeur, Monticello's architectural beauty, the torch of liberty flanked by olive and oak branches representing peace and strength, the heraldic eagle with wings spread in protection, and the Liberty Bell beside a small eagle on the Franklin Half. Together, these designs tell the story of American ideals, from independence to enlightenment to enduring freedom.

Why Collectors Choose This Set

The 1962 U.S. Mint Set holds exceptional appeal for collectors building complete year sets, Franklin Half Dollar enthusiasts, and silver stackers alike. With six coins containing 90% silver, this set delivers substantial precious metal content while preserving an important moment in American numismatic history—the twilight of traditional silver coinage before the 1965 composition changes. The dual-mint format provides both Philadelphia and Denver examples, making it ideal for collectors who appreciate mint mark varieties. As an official U.S. Mint product in original government packaging, authenticity and quality are guaranteed, while the uncirculated condition ensures these coins retain their original beauty and investment potential.

*While we carefully select the finest quality sets available, original mint set packaging consisted of cellophane sleeves that may show age-related wear. We guarantee the condition of the coins themselves and will select our best available set at time of sale. Sleeve condition may vary and can include writing, tears, stains, rips, folds, or in rare cases may be missing.
