This ten cent piece contains approximately 0.0715 troy ounces of precious metal and is preserved in Very Fine condition, showing the clear details of its century-old artistry. Designed by Charles Barber, the obverse of the coin presents a dignified profile of Lady Liberty. She wears a traditional Phrygian cap adorned with a laurel wreath, with the word LIBERTY visible on her headband. Surrounding her portrait are the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and the 1912 year of issue. The reverse side of the coin focuses on the face value, displaying the words ONE DIME. This denomination is framed by a detailed wreath that encircles the central text, completing a balanced and historic aesthetic that defined early twentieth-century American pocket change.
