1891-O Seated Liberty Dime — Very Fine (VF)
A classic 1891-O Seated Liberty Dime, struck at the New Orleans Mint during the final year of the Seated Liberty Dime series. The obverse features Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield and liberty pole, while the reverse displays “ONE DIME” surrounded by a wreath.
This example is graded Very Fine (VF), showing moderate circulation wear while retaining strong detail in Liberty's figure, lettering, and wreath. The “O” mint mark identifies this coin as a New Orleans issue. Struck in 90% silver, this late-date Seated Liberty Dime is an excellent addition to a collection of classic U.S. silver coinage.
