The 1940-S Mercury dime is a grossly common in all of the worn grades and well into the Mint State levels, with Full Bands Gems available through at least MS67 in healthy quantities. Enthusiasts should experience little trouble in finding the piece they want, provided they are willing to pay noble premiums for the nicest examples.
Obverse Description
Winged Liberty, or Mercury (the Roman god of commerce), is depicted facing left with LIBERTY spelled around the periphery. IN GOD WE TRUST appears left of the neck and the date is positioned just below the bust around 5 o'clock. The designer's initials "AW" appear to the right of the neck.
Reverse Description
A large torch is centered vertically adorned with an axe head and olive branches. UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN * ONE DIME * is spelled out around the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears near the bottom rim left of the torch.
