The 1866 proof half dime is the first post-war proof of the Seated Liberty series. Production continued at modest levels as the Mint's collector program maintained its annual schedule through the Reconstruction era. The 1866 proof pairs with the key-date 1866 circulation strike (mintage 10,000 coins).
