1945-PDS Mercury Dime 3-pc Set NGC MS67
Last-Year Mercury Dime Set
1945 was not only the final year of World War II, it was also the final year of the Mercury Dime. These beautiful coins have always been collector favorites. So, when we were recently given first right of refusal on a remarkable hoard of these dimes – 23 complete sets, each featuring one Mercury Dime from the Philadelphia Mint, Denver Mint and San Francisco Mint – we jumped at the chance of being able to make them available to our customers!
What’s more, each set has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in Superb Gem Uncirculated Mint State-67 (MS67) condition! It’s a scarce thing to find a hoard of key-date coins like this, especially in such impressive condition. According to the NGC population report, only 7 sets could ever be assembled in a higher grade!
In the century since it was first issued, the Mercury Dime has gone on to become one of America’s most beloved coins. In addition to its iconic design of Lady Liberty with a winged Phrygian cap that makes her look like the Roman god Mercury, the coin’s reverse depicts a fasces symbolizing unity and strength, and an olive branch, signifying peace. Designed by famed German-born American sculptor 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!
Each coin in this historic, coveted and sought-after collection was struck in 90% fine silver and the entire set comes beautifully housed in a black presentation case. Don’t miss out; secure one of these exceptionally high-grade, last-year-of-issue 1945-PDS Mercury Dime Three-Piece Sets for your collection right now!
LAST YEAR OF ISSUE – “Firsts” and “Lasts” are always important to collectors. The Mercury Dime was struck from 1916-1945, meaning these coins minted in 1945 represent that last year they were struck.
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 – Each Mercury Dime was struck in 2.5 grams of highly pure 90% fine silver and measures 17.9 mm in diameter.
UNITED STATES LEGAL TENDER—The Mercury Dime was 10 cents legal tender in the United States at a time when a dime could purchase a Superman comic book, a loaf of bread or two bottles of Coca-Cola.
AMAZING HIGH-QUALITY CONDITION – All three last-year-of-issue Mercury Dimes in this three-piece set have been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) in Superb Gem Uncirculated Mint State-67 (MS67) condition.
