1987 US Mint Uncirculated Coin Set
This 1987 US Mint Uncirculated Coin Set includes tokens from the Denver and Philadelphia mints along with ten coins, five from each mint. Those five are the Kennedy half dollar, the Washington quarter, the Roosevelt dime, the Jefferson nickel, and the Lincoln quarter.
Designs of the 1987 US Mint Uncirculated Coin Set
The five coins in this 1987 US Mint Uncirculated Coin Set each feature the image of a famous American president on the obverse. In four cases, the presidents face to the left side of the coin. Only Lincoln faces to the right. Lincoln and Jefferson are the only two whose portraits include their shoulders and portions of their clothes. Those images also run to the edge as opposed to being truncated to make space for inscriptions. All obverses bear four inscriptions in common. They include the mint mark, “P” for Philadelphia and “D” for Denver, the year of mintage, “1987,” the word “LIBERTY,” and the national motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST.”
Similarly, the coins share inscriptions on the reverse. There, each one bears the face value of the coin and the motto from the Great Seal of the United States, “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” As far as the designs are concerned, two of the five feature buildings that bear some relationship to the president on the obverse. In the case of the nickel, that is Thomas Jefferson’s Virginia home, Monticello. For the cent, it is the Lincoln Memorial. Two of the other reverses, those of the half dollar and the quarter, feature eagles carrying an olive branch and arrows. The dime has a torch and two branches, one olive and the other oak.
