Mercury Dimes are silver ten-cent coins minted by the United States from 1916 to 1945. The 1919 Mercury Dime, particularly the San Francisco Mint variety (S mint mark), is sought after by collectors due to its relatively low mintage and appealing design by Adolph A. Weinman. This coin exhibits the iconic depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap, symbolizing freedom of thought. Collectors often evaluate the 1919-S Mercury Dime based on its condition, rarity, and the presence of attractive toning, which can significantly influence its market value.
