1960 U.S. Mint Proof 5 Coin Set
Official 1960 United States Mint proof coin set issued by the Philadelphia Mint, presented in its original sealed cellophane packaging and Treasury Department envelope. This five-coin proof set includes the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson Nickel, Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter, and Franklin Half Dollar. Each coin bears a brilliant mirror-like finish with frosted reliefs, showcasing sharp strikes and deep reflective surfaces characteristic of early U.S. proof minting. The obverses display the national mottos IN GOD WE TRUST, LIBERTY, and the respective dates and denominations, while the reverses feature classic American iconography such as the Lincoln Memorial, Monticello, Liberty Bell, and heraldic eagle, each accompanied by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM. This set was among the last to feature the Franklin Half Dollar before the introduction of the Kennedy design in 1964, making it a desirable collectible for mid-century numismatic enthusiasts. Proof, coins sealed as issued; minimal toning with strong reflectivity. Original envelope included and well preserved.
