Liberty Seated Dimes, minted from 1837 to 1891, feature a design by Christian Gobrecht. The 10-cent pieces struck in 1860 at the Philadelphia mint typically showcase a seated figure of Liberty holding a shield and a pole with a cap, symbolizing freedom. This coin is part of the broader category of collectible U.S. coins, valued by numismatists for its historical significance, intricate design, and relative scarcity, especially in higher grades. The 1860 Liberty Seated Dime is particularly notable for its role in the pre-Civil War era of American coinage.
