The Liberty Seated Half Dime (H10c) was minted in the United States from 1837 to 1873, featuring a design by Christian Gobrecht. The 1850 issue, struck at the New Orleans Mint, is notable for its distinctive motifs, including Liberty seated on a rock holding a pole with a cap and a shield. This coin is made of 90% silver and 10% copper, making it a valuable collectible for numismatists. The 1850 New Orleans variant is particularly sought after due to its lower mintage compared to other years and its historical significance.
