Bullion/Proof like Coin UNC*
The Mercury dime is a ten-cent coin struck by the United States Mint from 1916 to 1945. Designed by Adolph Weinman and sometimes referred to as the Winged Liberty dime, it gained its common name as the obverse depiction of a young Liberty, identifiable by her winged Phrygian cap, was confused with the Roman god Mercury. Weinman is believed to have used Elsie Stevens, the wife of lawyer and poet Wallace Stevens, as a model.
The coin's reverse depicts a fasces, symbolizing unity and strength, and an olive branch, signifying peace.
The coin was minted until 1945, when the Treasury ordered that a new design, featuring recently deceased president Franklin Roosevelt, take its place.
This coin is one of the smallest bullion coins ever produced in the world. These are authentic mini reproductions of popular US and World currencies which are layered and filled with 8 to 22kt gold. The coin is in beautiful pristine uncirculated condition. I hope the photographs will help with grading and description. Every minute detail of the large coin has been adapted to its mini version.
