The capped bust design was the work of former U.S. Mint chief engraver William Kneass.
This design was popular and was featured on dimes from 1809 to 1837. The design features extensive differences from the previous version. The reverse features a bald eagle grasping three arrows to symbolize strength as well as an olive branch to symbolize peace. The bald eagle's breast also features a U.S. shield with 6 horizontal lines and 13 vertical stripes.
The capped bust dime was the first dime to state its face value on the coin. Previous designs had no written value on the coin and caused some confusion among foreigners.
