The Mercury Dime (1916-1945) is one of the most beloved coins in American history, a shining example of early 20th-century artistry and reform. Mandated by President Theodore Roosevelt as part of his mission to elevate U.S. coinage, this stunning design by Adolph A. Weinman originally bore the name Winged Liberty, but its resemblance to the Roman god Mercury gave it its now-iconic title. Struck in .999 fine silver, these dimes circulated during pivotal moments in American history, from the Roaring Twenties through the Great Depression and World War II.
This remarkable collection includes one hand-selected Mercury Dime from each of the last 20 years of issue (1926-1945), excluding 1932 and 1933, when none were minted. A total of 18 coins, all in circulated condition, are carefully housed in a handsome portfolio, allowing collectors to admire the enduring beauty of this legendary series. Each set is accompanied by a printed history of the Mercury Dime and a Certificate of Authenticity, ensuring the genuineness of these classic silver coins.
Whether you’re a seasoned numismatist or a history enthusiast, this collection represents a tangible connection to America’s past—an opportunity to own a complete set of the final years of the Mercury Dime, a coin that embodies both artistic excellence and historical significance.
