Collectible coins are items of value sought by numismatists for their historical significance, rarity, and condition. In the United States, the five-cent nickel has evolved from various designs, including the Seated Liberty Half Dime, minted from 1837 to 1873, with the 1870 San Francisco issue being particularly notable due to its limited mintage and appeal among collectors. These half dimes were small silver coins used in everyday transactions, and their historical context and design details make them of great interest to collectors.
