The Mercury Dime was a ten-cent coin minted in the United States from 1916 to 1945. The coin features the image of Liberty, often mistakenly referred to as "Mercury" due to the winged cap, symbolizing freedom of thought. The 1945 Denver Mint issue of the Mercury Dime is one of the final coins produced in this series, and it is sought after by collectors for its historical significance and relatively lower mintage compared to other years. The coin contains 90% silver and is popular among both numismatists and silver bullion investors.
