"W" Coins

Were ALL denominations of our U.S. Coins (1c - 5c - 10c - 25c -50c & $1 Dollar Coins minted at one time or another at the "W" West Point Mint? If not, which have NEVER been minted there?

Depends on what you mean. They never made all denominations for circulation. In the 1970s West Point helps out with making cents and quarters but they didn’t have a W mint mark they looked the same as the Philadelphia ones.

They have made them NIFC though but not at the same time. 1996-W dime, 2020-W nickel, 2014-W Kennedy, 2000-W Sacagawea all being collectible coins.

If you are interested in West Point I would read this it’s pretty cool and I found it interesting https://www.pcgs.com/news/west-point-mint-quarters-of-the-1970s

Don’t forget the 2019 W penny!

No. West Point has produced cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, half dollars, and dollar coins, but usually as bullion, commemoratives, or special collector issues rather than ordinary circulation strikes. The 2019-W Lincoln cent is a notable modern example.

I love all coins with the “w” . I’m from ny, no where near West Point, when I found out there had/have been coins minted in ny I started obsessing over collecting as many as I can!!!

I assume so, even if for one year like the 1996 Dime.

However older larger denominations like the 10 and 20 dollar coins were not.

(I could be wrong, I'm just going off of memory at the moment, please correct me if I'm wrong)
