Description
This listing is for one 1941-S Mercury Dime, as pictured. S mint mark, denoting the San Francisco Mint. XF-AU (Extremely Fine to About Uncirculated) grade / condition. Designed by Adolph Weinman & also referred to as the Winged Liberty Head dime, it gained its common name because 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 & poet Wallace Stevens, as a model. The coin's reverse depicts a fasces, symbolizing unity & strength, & an olive branch, signifying peace. The dime's design was changed in 1946 to feature President Roosevelt on the obverse of the coin who had recently deceased. Great addition to a collection or as a gift. 1/10 ounce of silver.
