Last coins San Francisco made for circulation

I was just a little bored lol, and this question seemed to come up a lot, "what was the last <insert denomination> San Francisco made for circulation?"
(Edit: and with the S mintmark, so you can tell they minted them.)
So I looked it up:
Cent: 1974 Lincoln
Half dime: 1873 Seated liberty
Nickel: 1970 Jefferson
Dime: 1955 Roosevelt
20 cent piece: 1875 Seated liberty
Quarter: 1954 Washington
Half dollar: 1954 Franklin
Dollar: 1980 Susan B. Anthony
Quarter eagle: 1879 Liberty head
3 dollar gold: 1870 Indian princess
Half eagle: 1916 Indian head
Eagle: 1930 Indian head
Double eagle: 1930 St. Gaudens
(Any denomination not mentioned was never minted for circulation, or at all, by the San Francisco mint.)

I think this is complete and correct (correct me if not).

Just a side note, would love if someone made a set for something like this. Would be a fun album to work on finishing. Besides the gold ones, probably wouldn't be too expensive to complete.

 

I was thinking the same thing...

 

Dangerous minds think alike......(devil)

 

I believe the list is correct if you make "made for circulation with the S mint mark."

They made cents without a mintmark 1978-1983, dimes 1965-1967 and in 1975, quarters 1965-1967, and half dollars 1965-1966.

 

If you want to be technical about it, sure, fair enough. But if you can't tell they minted them, they don't really "count" in my book. But I edited it to include that detail.

 

The quarter and half eagle aren’t outrageously expensive. But the other gold coins are way out there. Especially, the three-dollar coin. It’s unique and would go for 7 figures.

Very interesting!

 

The most recent Red Book lists that one at $6.6 million in AU-50. Even having enough money wouldn't guarantee you could get it, if whoever owns it isn't in the mood to sell.

The second to last San Francisco $3 gold piece was minted in 1860... 7000 minted that year, still kind of rare but far more realistic than a coin that only has 1 known to still exist lol. (I've seen it for sale for about $1200 in XF-45.)

$3 gold pieces were never minted in particularly large numbers and are just generally quite expensive in any case. Highest mintage is 1854 with about 138,000 minted that year. Good luck...

 

Interesting coin. Here's a Coin Week article that details it's colorful history and the possibility that there may be two of them.
