1945 Mercury Dime 10-pc Set VG

Get 10 Mercury Dimes From 1945

One of the most classic designs in U.S. coin history is the Mercury Dime, so named for Liberty’s resemblance to the mythical god of commerce. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman on the precipice of World War I, the coin’s design was said to represent “Freedom of Thought”—a freedom that emboldened us as we fought against the Axis Powers in World War II. This ten-coin set brings together Dimes struck in 1945 during the final year of World War II and the last year the series was struck before being replaced by the Roosevelt Dime in 1946.

One of America’s Most Beloved Coins

In the century since it was first issued, the Mercury Dime has gone on to become one of America’s most beloved coins. In addition to its iconic design of Lady Liberty with a winged Phrygian cap that makes her look like the Roman god Mercury, the coin’s reverse depicts a fasces symbolizing unity and strength, and an olive branch signifying peace. Designed by famed German-born American sculptor Adolph A. Weinman, the image was so popular that when the U.S. Mint struck its first Palladium Eagle coin in 2017 it selected Weinman’s design!
