Liberty Seated Dimes, minted from 1837 to 1891, are a notable series of U.S. dimes characterized by their depiction of Lady Liberty seated on a rock. The 10-cent piece from 1849, specifically minted in New Orleans, is part of a smaller mintage compared to other years, making it a desirable collectible. The New Orleans mint mark "O" distinguishes these coins, and their rarity and historical significance enhance their appeal among numismatists. Grade, condition, and market demand significantly influence the value of these coins in collector circles.
