The half dime was one of the 10 basic coins authorized by Congress in the Mint Act of April 2, 1792, which established the U.S. Mint and set forth ground rules on how it should operate, including details of the coins it should produce.
Half-reales coins from Latin American mints were readily available during that time, and these small silver coins – worth six-and-a-quarter cents each – found ready acceptance among the American public, obviating the need for home-grown coins in that value range.
The half dime remained in production through 1873, but the handwriting on the wall was clearly a parting message: “So long, old girl, it’s been good to know you all these years!” The closing years witnessed some of the lowest mintages since the very earliest years of the half dime’s run.
