Seated Liberty Dimes, minted from 1837 to 1891, can hold a range of values depending on a few key factors:

• Condition: This is the most significant factor influencing a Seated Dime's value. A well-preserved dime in Mint State (MS) condition will be worth considerably more than a heavily worn one. Grading companies like PCGS or NGC assign numerical grades (MS-60 to MS-70 for uncirculated, and grades like VG for Very Good for circulated coins) that reflect a coin's condition.

• Year and Mintmark: Certain years and mintmarks are rarer than others and can significantly influence value. Here's a general range:

  • Common Dates and Mintmarks: Circulated grades can range from $10 to $40, while uncirculated specimens can go from $100 to $400 or more.
  • Less Common Dates and Mintmarks: Circulated grades can be around $20 to $100, and uncirculated can reach $500 or more.
  • Rare Dates and Mintmarks (e.g., 1858-S, 1873-CC): Circulated examples can be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars, and uncirculated specimens can reach into the tens of thousands.

• Variety: There are minor die varieties for some Seated Dimes that collectors look for, and these can influence value. For rarer varieties, the premium can be substantial.

Remember: If you have a Seated Silver Dime you suspect might be valuable, it's best to consult a professional coin dealer or numismatic expert for an accurate appraisal. They can examine the coin's condition, identify any special characteristics (like variety or mintmark), and provide a more precise value estimate.
