Liberty Seated Dimes 1837-1891

Dansco Coin Albums have been a longtime companion for both expert numismatists and beginning coin collectors. The Liberty Seated Dimes 1837-1891 Dansco Album comes in a 7/8" binder and holds up to 121 coins. The album has 5 Dansco pages (series: 6122-1 to 6122-5), each one holding and displaying all Liberty Seated dimes minted from 1837-1891. The lettering "ONE DIME" used now on all dime coins was issued for the first time on the Liberty Seated coin in 1837. Perhaps the Liberty Seated dimes series have seen the most variations on their obverse and reverse designs than any other U.S. coin. Liberty Seated dimes are made of 90% silver and 10% copper and they measure 17.9 mm in diameter. The Liberty Seated coins minted from 1837-1853 weigh 2.67 grams. The dimes minted from 1853-1873 and from 1875-1891 weigh 2.49 grams. Coins minted from 1873-1874 with arrows at the date weigh 2.50 grams. Liberty Seated dimes were coined at the Philadelphia, San Francisco, Carson City and New Orleans Mints. Dansco Coin Albums have their pages attached with metal screws, making it easy to add and replace.
