1928 Mercury Dime Pair, 90% Silver — 2 Coins
A matched pair of 1928 Winged Liberty (Mercury) dimes — both from the same year, both showing honest circulation wear. Checking the reverses carefully, neither coin shows a mint mark in the left field beside the fasces, which puts both at Philadelphia. Details: - Date: 1928 - Mint Mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark) — both coins - Denomination: Dime - Series: Mercury (Winged Liberty) Dime - Silver Content: 90% silver, 0.0723 troy oz pure silver each - Lot Total Silver: 0.1446 troy oz Both coins are circulated with moderate wear — facial features and wing detail visible but softened, fasces readable on the reverse. Light surface marks consistent with age. A solid pair for a type set or a silver stack. Despite the nickname, the figure on these dimes isn't Mercury at all — she's Liberty wearing a winged cap, a symbol of freedom of thought, designed by Adolph Weinman in 1916. Scrap silver melt value: about $10.02 (≈0.1446 ozt silver at a $69.30/ozt spot price, Aug 23, 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: $12.53–$15.53 (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.
