Dimes Series
The U.S. Mint's Dime series features some of America's most iconic coin designs, including the Winged Liberty Head (Mercury) Dime and the Roosevelt Dime. The Mercury Dime, minted from 1916 to 1945, is celebrated for its intricate depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap, symbolizing freedom of thought. The Roosevelt Dime, introduced in 1946, honors the 32nd President of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and remains in production today. Both designs were struck in 90% silver until 1964, when the rising cost of silver led to a shift toward less expensive metals.

Historical Context
Pre-1965 90% silver coins, often referred to as "junk silver" or scrap silver, represent a unique era in American monetary history. As the value of silver began to rise in the mid-20th century, the U.S. government decided to remove silver from circulating coinage, replacing it with Copper/Nickel clad coins. This decision led to the widespread hoarding of silver coins by the public, who recognized their intrinsic value. These coins, often kept as a "rainy day" fund, provide a reliable store of wealth that has endured through economic fluctuations, making them a prudent choice for investors seeking stability in their portfolios.
