The 1917 San Francisco Mint struck ten cents dimes, often referred to as "Mercury dimes," featuring a depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap. During this period, the Philippines was under U.S. sovereignty, and such coins are noted for their historical significance. The 1917 San Francisco dimes are particularly sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and iconic design. Collectors value these coins not only for their numismatic importance but also for their representation of early 20th-century American coinage.
