The 1946 dime, also known as the Mercury dime, features the image of Liberty wearing a winged cap, symbolizing freedom of thought. Produced by the United States Mint, these coins are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. A roll of 10c coins typically includes 50 dimes, totaling 5 dollars in face value. The 1946 issue is notable as it marked the transition to post-World War II coinage and can be desirable among collectors for its historical context and silver content.
