The Seated Liberty Dime, designed by engraver Christian Gobrecht, was minted from 1837 to 1891. The 1874 Seated Liberty Dime features the depiction of Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield and a liberty pole, with the reverse showcasing a wreath encircling the denomination. Collectors value this coin for its historical significance and the intricacies of its design, with the 1874 date being particularly sought after due to its lower mintage compared to other years in the series. The coin is made of 90% silver and 10% copper, characteristic of U.S. dimes of that era.
