The 1885 Liberty Seated Dime is a notable collectible coin from the United States, part of the series minted from 1837 to 1891.

The reverse depicts a wreath enclosing the denomination "ONE DIME." The 1885 issue is significant due to its relatively low mintage, making it more sought after by collectors.
