The Seated Liberty Half Dime, minted from 1837 to 1873, features a depiction of Lady Liberty seated and is a notable collectible coin from the United States. The 1848 edition, produced at the Philadelphia Mint, is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and relatively low mintage. Collectors often focus on variations in strike quality, condition, and mintmark when evaluating the value of these coins. The five-cent denomination, also known as the nickel, includes various types such as the Liberty Head and Buffalo nickels, which are also popular among numismatists.
