In 2025, the Mint, with the help of collectors, picked some of the best historic coins struck throughout the U.S.’s history. Narrowed down to the top five favorites, the Mint will be releasing special sets throughout 2026 that will include 24k 99.99 percent fine gold coins reissued as faithful representations of the historic designs. These recreations will also have their original dates to honor their time in history. Additionally, the set will include a silver medal designed to pay homage to the coin’s era.

The first of these sets will be for the Mercury Dime. The iconic obverse by Adolph Weinman graces the gold coin along with the Semiquincentennial Liberty Bell privy mark.

This first set in the Best of the Mint series will be available on June 4.
