What is a 1796-P Early $2.50 Coin?
The 1796-P Early $2.50 Coin is a gold coin that was minted at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $2.50. This was produced as a "Mint Strike" coin which usually means it was intended for use in daily transactions. With such a low mintage of only 963, there are likely few of these items available for purchase or at auction in a year. This coin was minted in the first year of its series, and is a more popular coin to collectors for that reason, but not necessarily to investors. This coin contains a relatively small amount of gold at 4.043 grams (0.13 oz. Adjusted Gold Weight).
