USA Coin Book has compiled a list of the most valuable US dimes ever known. For this list, we are only including ten-cent dimes: Draped Bust Dimes, Capped Bust Dimes, Seated Liberty Dimes, Barber Dimes, Mercury Dimes, and Roosevelt Dimes. In addition, we are NOT factoring in the prices for Proof versions of these dimes (unless the Proof version is an error coin or an unusual variety). We are using our database of virtually every US coin ever produced (6,000+ coins) based on year, mint mark, major varieties, errors and their associated price values to come up with a list of the top most valuable dimes known. Our most valuable dimes list includes coins starting in 1796 up to the present (2024) - including rare nickel errors and rare varieties - some of which could still potentially be found in common pocket change. This list and the prices are current as of 2024. Estimated coin prices and values in our database are updated twice per year.
The purpose of this page is to provide coin valuation data to collectors, investors, the media, and anyone interested learning what the most valuable dimes and ten-cent coins are. Visitors can click on the links in the list below to view larger images of both sides of the coins (mint mark locations, error/variety diagnosis, etc), detailed pricing data for various conditions/grades of the coins, mintage figures, metal composition, history and other encyclopedic information regarding each individual coin.
