The Draped Bust Dimes, with small eagle design, were minted in the United States from 1796 to 1807. The 1798 Draped Bust Dime, struck in Philadelphia, is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and early representation of U.S. coinage. These coins feature a bust of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, reflecting the neoclassical artistic style of the period. The 1798 issue, in particular, has variations in its mintage and is known for its limited numbers, making it a valuable addition to any collection of early American dimes.
