With a mintage of only 2 million, the 1841-O Seated Liberty Dime can be hard to find in decent grades. Considered to be in very fine condition, the 1841-O Seated Liberty Dime will contain wear that compromises the details of the coin. 1841 is an important date in US history because the first filibuster in the US took place, President William Henry Harrison dies of pneumonia, and the first steam self-propelled fire engine is completed in the US. Coins are a great way to learn about history, since the older ones are at least one hundred years old. The Seated Liberty series is one of these collections that teaches us so much about past history and the events that took place. The Seated Liberty series is ideal for experienced collectors, since it carries low minted coins with high premiums. Collectors also enjoy this series as an investment, due to its 90% silver content.
The Seated Liberty Dime series began its production in 1837 and continued until 1891. The Seated Liberty design was used on the dime, quarter, and half dollar and would be replaced by the infamous Barber coin series. The series underwent numerous revisions throughout its cycle as the US coinage, creating varietal types for collectors. Some examples of these varieties are large and small dates, stars and no stars, drapery being removed, re-struck mint-marks, and a die crack at various stages of production. The Seated Liberty collection is not for the faint of heart and is mainly popular among experienced collectors.
