Liberty Seated Dimes minted in 1848 are part of a series that features the Liberty Seated design, which was used on various denominations from 1836 to 1891. These coins depict Lady Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield in one hand and a liberty pole in the other. The 10-cent denomination is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, and the 1848 issue is particularly notable among collectors due to its historical significance and relative scarcity. The design and date are sought after by numismatists, making it a valuable addition to any collection focused on American coinage.
