Collectible coins are often categorized by their historical significance, rarity, and design. The Five Cents Nickel, introduced in the United States in 1866, and the Half Dime, a denomination that dates back to the early 19th century, are popular among collectors. The Seated Liberty Half Dime, minted from 1837 to 1873, features a distinctive design with Liberty seated. The 1845 Seated Liberty Half Dime is particularly sought after due to its limited mintage and historical context within the pre-Civil War era of American coinage. Collectors value such coins not only for their numismatic appeal but also for their place in American history.
