1940–1945 Silver Mercury Dime BU

Quality World War II Mercury Dime

One of the most classic designs in U.S. coin history is the Mercury Dime, so named for Liberty's resemblance to the mythical god of commerce. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman on the precipice of World War I, the coin's design was said to represent "Freedom of ­thought"–a freedom that emboldened us as we fought against the Axis Powers in World War II.

COIN HIGHLIGHTS:

• BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC DESIGN – The Mercury Dime features the iconic image of Lady Liberty with a winged Phrygian cap that makes her look like the Roman god Mercury. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman, the image was so popular that when the U.S. Mint struck its first Palladium Eagle coin in 2017 it selected Weinman's design!
• STRUCK IN HIGHLY-PURE SILVER – These Mercury Dimes were struck in 2.5 grams of highly pure 90% fine silver and measure 17.9 mm in diameter.
