The Complete First Issue Philadelphia Mint Mark Set
- A remarkable set of the first year of every coin denomination struck at the Philadelphia Mint with the coveted "P" mint mark.
- This historic set includes every first-year “P” mint mark coin, up to the first dollar coins. It even includes the one-year-only 2017 Lincoln Penny that is the only penny bearing the “P” mint mark; it was a special commemorative issue celebrating the 225th anniversary of the U.S. Mint, and it is particularly hard to find today.
- The coins are presented in original uncirculated or proof condition, except for the 1942 silver nickel which is in gently circulated condition due to its age and scarcity. Each coin is protectively encapsulated to protect it from dust, dirt or fingerprints.
- A deluxe wooden display case is included at no additonal charge.

From the penny to the dollar, the first of each coin struck with the rare Philadelphia Mint mark…
By tradition, the Philadelphia Mint was not required to include its mint mark on coins — a practice that endured for 150 years until World War II when the mint struck emergency Jefferson Nickels in 35% silver and included the “P” mint mark to identify these special coins. Other denominations followed suit between 1979 and 2017.
That’s why this collection is so important — because it includes every first-year “P” mint mark coin, up to the first dollar coins. It even includes the one-year-only 2017 Lincoln Penny that is the only penny bearing the “P” mint mark; it was a special commemorative issue celebrating the 225th anniversary of the U.S. Mint, and it is particularly hard to find today.
Other key coins include the 1942 silver nickel, which was the first-ever “P” mint mark coin…the 1979 Susan B. Anthony dollar that was the first dollar coin ever minted with the “P” mint mark…and the 1983 Los Angeles Olympiad 90% silver dollar that was the first commemorative dollar to feature the “P” mint mark.
