They also helpfully put the value in cents on the 10 cent coin.

The US dime is aptly and 100% appropriately named, given the early

If I understand the point, it was that artefacts of currency (coin and
note) should state the value in the currency units quoted in commerce.

That's as may be. The artifact of currency in question simply states
the value given it by law.

And there's nothing stopping commerce from complying with the law by
stating prices in dimes, anyway! )
