The Mercury Dime, officially known as the Winged Liberty Head dime, was produced by the United States Mint from 1916 to 1945. The 1920 Denver Mint issue is one of the key dates in the series, with a mintage of around 2.5 million coins. These dimes are composed of 90% silver and feature a depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap on the obverse, while the reverse displays an olive branch and a torch. Due to their silver content and collectible appeal, Mercury Dimes are popular among numismatists.
