Vintage Mercury Dime Collectible Set (1934-1945)
This is a curated collection of twelve United States Mercury Dimes, spanning the years 1934 through 1945. These coins, also known as the Winged Liberty Head dimes, were designed by Adolph A. Weinman and are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. Each coin measures 17.9 millimeters in diameter with a reeded edge. The collection is housed in a specialty display panel featuring a dark green marbled background with gold-toned lettering and a biographical text snippet regarding the history of the design. The coins are arranged chronologically in two rows. Condition-wise, the coins exhibit varying degrees of circulated wear; notable patination and silver oxidation are visible on several specimens, particularly the later dates like 1940 and 1945, which appear darker. The strike quality across the set looks average for circulated coinage of this era, with many of the finer details on Liberty's wings still discernible. The display board itself shows some minor edge wear and is fitted within what appears to be a protective presentation case or binder. This specific sequence represents the final decade of the Mercury Dime series before it was replaced by the Roosevelt Dime in 1946.
