    Description

    The "Winged Liberty" dime, designed by Adolph A. Weinman, features a portrait of Liberty facing left and wearing a winged cap on its obverse (heads side). The design became known as the Mercury dime because of its resemblance to the Roman god, Mercury. The coin's reverse (tails side) includes a Roman fasces and an olive branch, representing America's military readiness and, simultaneously, its desire for peace. Additional inscriptions to the originals will include "AU" (the symbol for gold), "24K," and "1/10 OZ."
    In 2016 the United States West Point Mint struck and issued coins to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of three iconic coin designs first issued in 1916: the "Winged Liberty" dime, "Standing Liberty" quarter, and "Walking Liberty" half-dollar. All three coins will be manufactured from .9999 fine, 24-karat gold.
