Seated Liberty Dimes were produced by the United States Mint from 1837 to 1891, featuring a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1854 Seated Liberty Dime is notable for its classic representation of Lady Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield and a liberty cap. The term "dime" refers to a ten-cent coin, which in the U.S. is known for its small size and high silver content, especially in earlier issues before the transition to a less silver-heavy composition in the 20th century. Collectors often seek coins like the 1854 dime for their historical value, rarity, and condition, impacting their desirability and market valuation.
