The beautiful Mercury Dime has been a hit with collectors for over a century. It was minted from 1916-1945, and was struck with 90% silver. The Mercury Dime's incredible design is what makes it stand out from other coins! The "Mercury" name comes from bust on the obverse that depicts Lady Liberty wearing a winged Phyrgian cap, which evokes the Roman God Mercury. The designer Adolph A. Weinman used his friend Elsie Stevens as the model for Lady Liberty.
This trio of 1926 Mercury Dimes takes you back to the height of the roaring 20s! Each set contains one dime from each mint that struck one in 1926 - Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. After nearly 100 years, these low mintage rarities are hard to find. The 1926-S Mercury Dime in this set is also a semi-key date, with only 1,520,000 minted. To put this in perspective, the Philadelphia minted 1926 Mercury Dime had a mintage of over 32 million! Each 1926 Mercury Dime in this trio is in Good to Very Good (G-VG) quality. Don't miss out on adding this vintage set of silver rarities to your collection today!
