The 1856 Seated Liberty Dime is considered to be in almost uncirculated condition. AU condition is a very close second to uncirculated, only exhibiting the slightest amount of wear on the coin but the main coin details are all very much in tact. Minted by the Philadelphia Mint, the 1856 Seated Liberty Dime carries no mint-mark. The Philadelphia Mint is almost as old as the US, being established in 1792 by the Founding Fathers. It still stands today, offering the best coin series the US has to offer!
The Seated Liberty series is one of the earlier coin collections that consisted of every coin matching in means of its design. Minted from 1837-1891, the Seated Liberty coin series goes down in history as one of the longest standing coin collections, after the modern Washington Quarter series. For a time, there was a misunderstanding of a law that coins needed to be minted for at least 25 years before being replaced. It wouldn't be until the end of the Barber coin series that this misunderstanding would be redirected.
