10C Mercury Dime 90% Silver Coin BU

tep back into early 20th-century America with the 10C Mercury Dime, one of the most admired coins in U.S. numismatic history. Struck by the U.S. Mint between 1916 and 1945, these dimes are composed of 90% fine silver and remain a beloved choice for collectors and investors alike. Their combination of artistry, symbolism, and silver content makes them timeless treasures.

The Mercury Dime was designed by Adolph A. Weinman, one of America’s most influential sculptors, who also created the famous Walking Liberty Half Dollar. His Mercury Dime design replaced the Barber Dime, introducing a fresh, modern look to U.S. coinage during the nation’s rise as a global power.

When the series concluded in 1945, it was replaced by the Roosevelt Dime, honoring President Franklin D. Roosevelt after his passing. Today, Mercury Dimes are treasured as symbols of resilience and artistic excellence from a defining chapter of U.S. history.
