Draped Bust Half Dimes, denoted as H10c, represent a significant series in early American coinage, minted from 1796 to 1805. The 1796 Draped Bust Half Dime is particularly notable, as it is the first year of issue and features the iconic design by Gilbert Stuart, depicting Lady Liberty with flowing hair on the obverse. On the reverse, the coin showcases a wreath encircling the denomination. Due to its limited mintage and historical importance, the 1796 Draped Bust Half Dime is highly sought after by collectors and numismatists alike.
