When most people think of coin collecting, they think of filling albums with coins organized by date of issue and mintmark, or organizing boxes of encapsulated coins in a similar way. But trends of collecting have changed over time. For example, collecting coins by mintmark wasn’t a recognized way of collecting until after 1893, when A. G. Heaton, the third president of the American Numismatic Association, published his Treatise on Coinage of the United States Branch Mints. That changed coin collecting at the time, as collectors began recognizing that coins minted at branch mints were often scarcer and worth more money than those minted at the Philadelphia Mint.
