1924 Mercury Dime XF
Struck in 1924, this ten-cent silver piece represents a classic era of American coinage. Composed of 90 percent silver, it contains 0.0715 troy ounces of precious metal. The coin is a well-preserved example of the Mercury Dime series, exhibiting the detailed artistry that defined early twentieth-century United States currency. The obverse presents a youthful portrait of Liberty adorned with a winged Phrygian cap, a design element intended to symbolize freedom of thought. Surrounding this central figure are the traditional inscriptions of liberty and trust. On the reverse, the design shifts to a fasces paired with an olive branch, representing both strength and peace. This side also bears the national motto and the denomination of one dime.
