This question is posted regularly and the answer is always the same:

1. Coins are struck, not printed, so the term is mis-strike, not "misprint"

2. The spelling TRVST is NOT an error.

During the 1920s it was very popular to produce artwork with classical Roman themes. Both the dollar and quarter made use of the Roman motif. The designers went so far as to write the coins' inscriptions using the Roman alphabet, which looks like ours except that it only has 24 letters. V was both a vowel AND a consonant, the same way we use Y both ways. It could be pronounced as a V or a U depending on where it appears in a word, so TRVST is still pronounced TRUST, it's just spelled in a different alphabet, that's all.

Anyway, 1925 is not a rare date for silver dollars. As of 03/2009 Numismedia lists retail values in the range of $14 to $17 for most circulated ones, unless there's a small "S" mint mark on the back near the word ONE. In that case it would be worth a few dollars more in better grades.

Silver 1925 liberty trvst?

Your question could refer to two different coins. In 1925 all coins except the cent and nickel had a picture of Miss Liberty, but only two used the spelling TRVST. Check "What is the value of a 1925 US quarter?" and "What is the value of a 1925 US silver dollar?" for more information.Remember, "TRVST" is NOT a misspelling! During the 1920s it was common for artists to use Latin lettering on buildings, coins, and other things that were designed in the Classical style. Latin didn't have a letter U, so V was used as both a vowel and a consonant.

To clear things up: > It doesn't say "In God YOU Trvst", it says "In God WE Trvst". > Coins are minted, not printed. > The motto is on the front of the coin, not the back. The motto was written using the Latin alphabet, a common artistic practice in the 1920s so it is NOT a misspelling. Please see the Related Questions for more information.

To clear things up: - Dollar, just like it's spelled on the coin. - In God WE Trvst, not "you" - And Type O is a kind of blood. "Typo" is a spelling mistake ... but TRVST isn't a mistake, either. Please see the Related Questions for an explanation and values.
