1944 Mercury Silver Dime Uncirculated 90%

1944 Mercury Silver Dime Uncirculated 90%

This 1944 Mercury Dime is a stunning example of American coinage, struck in 90% silver. The coin is in uncirculated condition, exhibiting sharp details on Lady Liberty’s winged Phrygian cap and the olive branch wrapped around the fasces on the reverse. The surfaces retain much of their original mint luster with light, attractive toning consistent with its age. As a classic piece of US history from the World War II era, this silver dime is a must-have for collectors seeking high-grade examples of the iconic Winged Liberty Head design. The coin is securely housed in a protective 2x2 cardboard flip, marked with its 90% silver purity and uncirculated status.

1944 Mercury Silver Dime Uncirculated 90% Silver

Condition: This coin is in uncirculated condition, retaining its original mint luster with no signs of wear on the high points of Liberty’s hair or the fasces on the reverse. The surfaces show some natural toning and minor contact marks consistent with a business strike from the era. It was produced at the Philadelphia Mint as it lacks a mint mark. The metal content is 90% silver and 10% copper. Historically, the Mercury Dime, designed by Adolph A. Weinman, is one of the most beloved American coin designs, minted during the final years of World War II. The strike type is a standard business strike and it is currently held in a 2x2 cardboard flip labeled as uncirculated.
