What is a 1796-P Draped Bust Dime?

The 1796-P Special Early Dime is a silver coin that was minted at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $0.10. As a "Special" coin, it was produced in a limited quantity, which makes it considered more collectible than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for circulation. The mintage of this coin is unknown and is therefore considered very rare at a minimum. This coin was minted in the first year of its series, and is a more popular coin to collectors for that reason, but not necessarily to investors. This coin contains a relatively small amount of silver at 2.40714 grams (0.08 oz. Adjusted Silver Weight).
