1937 & 1937-S Mercury Dimes, Pair, 90% Silver
Two 1937 Mercury (Winged Liberty) dimes — one from Philadelphia, one from San Francisco — side by side and both showing nicely. The reverse photo confirms the mint marks: the left coin has no mint mark (Philadelphia) and the right carries a small "S" below "ONE DIME" (San Francisco). Details: - Date: 1937 - Mint marks: Philadelphia (no mint mark) & San Francisco (S) - Denomination: Dime - Series: Mercury (Winged Liberty) Dime - Silver content: 90% silver, 0.0723 troy oz pure silver each (0.1446 oz for the pair) Both coins show moderate circulation wear — facial features and wing detail readable, fasces on the reverse present but softened on the bands. Honest circulated examples, solid silver content. The "Mercury" dime isn't actually Mercury at all — the winged cap on Lady Liberty was so often mistaken for the Roman god's headgear that the nickname stuck, and it's been "Mercury" ever since. Scrap silver melt value: about $9.99 (≈0.1446 ozt silver at a $69.11/ozt spot price, Aug 21, 2026). This is the raw junk-silver MELT value of the metal only — NOT an estimate of the coin's collector value based on its date, mint mark, grade, or condition. Gavel AI Estimated Value: $12.49–$15.49 (grade: Fine). This is an automated estimate based on the coin's visible condition — for reference only, not a professional appraisal or guarantee. The final price is set by the bidding. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
