Weinman’s design of Liberty for the US Dime depicts her figure wearing a winged cap. Though the coin was officially designated the Winged Liberty Dime, its eerie similarity to depictions of the Roman messenger god Mercury resulted in Americans commonly referring to the coin as the Mercury Dime instead.

The coin design from Weinman replaced the Barber Coinage dime with a bust of Liberty on its obverse. The coin would remain in production from 1916 to 1945. It was replaced starting in 1946 with a bust of President Franklin D. Roosevelt following his death in office during his fourth term as President of the United States. The Roosevelt design is still in use today on circulating dimes.

On the obverse side of 2016-W 1/10 oz Gold American Mercury Dimes is the image of Liberty in left-profile relief. This face of the coin includes inscriptions of “Liberty,” the national motto, the date mark, and the “AW” initials of the designer.

There reverse face on the 2016-W 1/10 oz Gold American Mercury Dimes features the same design from the Mercury Dime that Weinman created back in 1916. The Roman fasces is depicted in the center of the design element with an olive branch wrapped around it. Inscriptions denote the nation of issue, face value, weight, purity, metal content, and the mint mark of “W.”

These 2016-W 1/10 oz Gold American Mercury Dime Coins are available to you in perfect condition with an SP70 certification. Coins in this condition showcase full, original mint luster, impressive visuals, and have no detracting flaws of any kind present.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com.

Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase.
