Draped Bust Dimes are a type of silver coin produced by the United States Mint from 1796 to 1807. The design features a portrait of Liberty draped in a flowing gown on the obverse, with the denomination "10 C" and an eagle on the reverse. The 1798 Draped Bust Dime, minted in Philadelphia, is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance, rarity, and limited mintage. This era of U.S. coinage is known for its artistic design and connection to the early years of the American republic.
