I don't have any...I just thought that was cool. As someone who has seriously studied my family's history, I think it's neat to have coins or any other objects that our ancestors used.
My one seated liberty coin is a dime, 1856-O F12. Purchased at Al's Treasure Hut in Seattle in 1981, I like the coin and look at it about every two years.

A few. 1852-O,1887, 1890, 1891, and, strangely enough, an 1872-CC dime my grandfather owned, that I submitted to ANACS years ago and came back counterfeit, in their opinion.
I used to have a complete set. Sold it off over the last 6 months. All I have now are the ones in my Dansco 7070, a seated dime-love token I found on Ebay with my wife's initials, and this one:
In the AU and better grades, I have one for each type. That includes the following:
1837 No Stars No Drapery With Drapery 1853 with arrows Legend obverse 1874 with arrows.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
I got a few. Ibought a 1845 0 Dime many years ago from a dealer that sold mostly cleaned and damaged coins. This one was an exception though. I sent it in to PCGS several years ago and it came back a EF 40. So now its in a OGH and has some pretty color to it to. Anyone have a ballpark as to what is it worth.Sorry no pictures.
None here. I have a hard enough time handling dimes in general, too small.
Exclusively collecting Capped Bust Halves in VF to AU, especially rarity 3 and up. Joe G. Great BST purchases completed with commoncents123, p8nt, blu62vette and Stuart. Great coin swaps completed with rah1959, eyoung429 and Zug. Top-notch consignment experience with Russ.
Several, in dealer stock (mostly low-end circs), in my collection (mostly holed pieces on my Holey Coin Vest, including some ornate love tokens), and in my detector find album (I've dug up four).
Probably my favorite is the 1839 I dug on an old plantation site.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
