The Liberty Seated Dime, struck by the United States Mint from 1837 to 1891, features a depiction of Liberty seated on a rock. The 1876 Philadelphia Mint issue is part of a transitional design that shows Liberty holding a shield in one hand and a liberty pole in the other. Coins from this era are sought after by collectors for their historical significance, artistic design, and relative rarity, especially in higher grades. The 10-cent denomination remains a popular target for numismatists focusing on 19th-century American coinage.
