U.S. Dimes (1796-Date) The designs of the dimes were very similar to the Half Dimes up through 1891, which was the end of the Liberty Seated Type. The dimes for those years weighed exactly twice as much as their Half dime counterpart. There are many varieties of dimes including Bust Dimes, Seated Dimes, Barber Dimes, Mercury Dimes and the current Roosevelt Dime.
