technically, there were only 11, although if one considers the gold dollar a distinct denomination from the silver dollar, then there would be 12.

They were the 3c, half dime, dime, quarter, half dollar, silver dollar, gold dollar, $2.5, $3, $5, $10, $20

Technically 11 is the correct answer. Gold and Silver Dollars are one Denomination, $1.00 Different type of coins but the denomination is the same. Just my 2 cents

 

[jtryka]

Are not a silver dollar and a gold dollar the same denomination?
