Dime Values

The designs of U.S. dimes, first coined in 1796, follow closely those of the half dimes up through the Liberty Seated type. The dimes in each instance weigh twice as much as the half dimes. Dimes, or 10-cent coins, are still minted and heavily circulated to this day. The most famous and valuable U.S. dime is the 1894-S Barber dime. The finest known examples of this coin have sold for more than $2 million.
