Draped Bust Dimes are a type of U.S. coin minted from 1796 to 1807, featuring the design created by artist Gilbert Stuart. The obverse of the coin displays a portrait of Liberty draped in a flowing gown, while the reverse showcases an eagle. The 1796 Draped Bust Dime is particularly significant as it was the first year of issue for this design and is highly sought after by collectors due to its rarity, especially in high grades. These dimes were struck at the Philadelphia Mint and are considered important pieces in the history of American coinage.
