Description: Often mistaken for the Greek god, Mercury, the Winged-Liberty was uniquely designed by German-American sculptor, Adolph Weinman. Weinman aspired to portray a younger Lady Liberty with a winged Phrygian cap. Due to the Mint Act of 1792, the US coins must include an emblem of liberty, whether it's an eagle or actually Lady Liberty herself. Although the design of the Mercury dime was respected and admired, due to several die difficulties, it wasn't a favorite to actually produce. The Mercury dime gave the US Mint difficulties from 1916-1945, then the Roosevelt dime was selected as the new dime. Holding onto any quantity of Mercury dimes is constantly a challenge, since they are becoming less available due to popularity. Diversify your silver collection and enjoy owning the collectible Mercury dimes.
