Why a half-dime?This seemingly strange denomination dates from the time when U.S. coinage was intended to be based on multiples of 10 rather than 100. There were cents, dimes (10 cents), dollars (10 dimes), and eagles (10 dollars). These were split in half with half-cents, half-dimes, half-dollars, and half-eagles.In view of that arrangement, a half-dime made sense. But by the 1860s most people were comfortable thinking only in dollars and cents, so the new nickel coin was introduced in 1866 and the half-dime disappeared a few years later.
The US discontinued its half-dime denomination in 1873.
