Liberty Seated Dimes were produced in the United States from 1837 to 1891, characterized by their depiction of Lady Liberty seated on a rock. The 1872 Carson City issue is particularly notable among collectors due to its limited mintage and the historical significance of the Carson City Mint. The 10c denomination, representing ten cents, features variations that appeal to numismatists, especially in higher grades or with unique mint marks. Collecting these coins involves careful consideration of condition, rarity, and provenance.
