content: PAIR EARRINGS ON SEMINOLE MALE MANNEQUIN (formerly on display in NHB Exhibit Hall 9). Earrings are silver U.S. dimes suspended from wire hooks. One dime is dated 1893. Date on the other dime was partially destroyed when suspension hole was punched through. Only numbers 1--1 are visible. This appears to be a Liberty Seated dime, which type was minted 1837-1891, so perhaps the date may be 1891? The Seminole male mannequin dates to circa 1890 so these earrings may have been made for it? - F. Pickering 10-1-2004
