    In 2036, the Seated design will turn 200 years old. So we're going to do what we did with the 2016 Merc, SLQ, and WLH and make gold seated coins: The 1/20 oz half dime, the 1/10 oz dime, the 1/4 oz quarter, the 1/2 oz half, and the 1 oz dollar.

    I have made the dime already. I'll make pictures of the half dime, quarter, half dollar, and dollar soon. But here's the dime in all its spectacular modern Mint glory:

    (Yes, the details are supposed to be weak. That's how it was on the 2016 Merc. I was almost considering messing up the denticles, but nah.)

    What do you think? Is there anything else I should add to the dime?

    Yup. Should have used the no stars design seen on 1837 and 1838-O half dimes and dimes.

    I'm a huge amateur with image editors, don't know how to make them. I did consider them though.

    This is very easy to make. Just make the coin yellow, blur everything to create the impression of a weak strike, and replace the date and add "AU 24k (amount of gold).
