coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 5¢ (Five Cents, Nickel, Half Dime) \ Seated Liberty Half Dimes \ 1868
Seated Liberty Half Dimes were minted in the United States from 1837 to 1891 and feature the iconic design by engraver Christian Gobrecht, showcasing Liberty seated on a rock. The 1868 issue is particularly noteworthy among collectors for its historical significance and relatively low mintage. The coin's denomination of five cents makes it part of the nickel category, although it is often referred to as a half dime due to its earlier naming convention. Collectors value these coins for their artistic design and the role they played in American numismatic history.
