In recognition of the Semiquincentennial, our Nation’s 250th anniversary, for the first time since 1945, Liberty will appear on the obverse of the dime.

200-coin bags include circulating-quality coins minted at United States Mints in Denver and Philadelphia.

For one year only, the United States Mint is celebrating the 2026 Semiquincentennial through the minting and issuance of special coins and medals, with design changes to most of our circulating coins, including the dime.

The 2026 Emerging Liberty dime obverse design features a determined Liberty as the winds of revolution waft through her hair. With steadfast resolve, she faces the tyranny of the British monarchy. Her Liberty cap bears stars and stripes, at once a symbol of our burgeoning nation and a reference to early American coinage. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “1776 ~ 2026.”

The reverse design features an eagle in flight carrying arrows in its talons, representing the American Revolution and the colonists’ fight for independence. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “ONE DIME,” and “LIBERTY OVER TYRANNY.”

The 2026 Emerging Liberty 200-Coin Bag contains circulating-quality coins—100 minted at the Philadelphia Mint and 100 minted at the Denver Mint. These coins have never been placed into circulation.
