90% Silver Mercury Dime Series
The 90% Silver Mercury Dime series, minted between 1916 and 1945, is a beloved and iconic collection in the world of silver coins. Often referred to as "junk silver," these coins were withdrawn from circulation after 1965. Their rich history, combined with their silver content, makes them a popular choice for collectors and investors.
Mercury Dime Design
Adolph Weinman’s Mercury Dime design is one of the most celebrated in American numismatics. The obverse features a youthful Lady Liberty wearing a winged Phrygian cap, symbolizing liberty and freedom, with the wings representing freedom of thought. On the reverse, a fasces is depicted alongside an olive branch, symbolizing the United States' preparedness for war and its desire for peace. This powerful imagery has made the Mercury Dime a favorite among coin collectors and history enthusiasts.
The Mints
These Mercury dimes were produced at various U.S. mints, including the Philadelphia Mint, Denver Mint, and San Francisco Mint. Each mint’s unique mark adds another layer of interest and collectability to these coins. The diversity of mint locations and years of production make each roll a unique mix of American history.
Historical Context
Before 1965, 90% silver coins were a common part of American currency. However, with the rising demand for silver and the introduction of copper/nickel clad coins, these dimes were pulled from circulation. They were saved by the public for their silver content as a "rainy day fund" in times of economic uncertainty. Many of these coins have been melted down over the years, further increasing their rarity and collectability.
Why Choose This Product?
The 90% Silver Mercury Dime 50-Coin Roll offers an affordable and efficient way to invest in silver. With low premiums over the spot price of silver, these rolls are an excellent choice for those looking to acquire silver in larger quantities without the higher costs associated with numismatic products.

I bought for the silver content not for numismatic value, mercs scratch the itch when it comes to "fractional" silver, the roll came with a couple of slick but thats to be expected. Overall mercs are a great purchase for silver content and holding history in your hands, will buy again.

APMEX continues to deliver with amazing customer service. Received my tube of all 50 Mercs, no variations in the batch. Expect some circulated and heavy wear on the coins but all dates were readable. I love collecting this beautiful coin for the history and design. Will keep buying.

The 10 rolls that I just purchased of Walking Liberty Half are only the latest buy from APMEX. Last week, I purchased several rolls of Mercury Dimes. I have bought a couple of hundred thousand dollars from APMEX over the last 20+ years or so. I continue to buy from this company for their absolute reliability and quality of coins I've bought. If their listing is for AU coins, I receive AU coins. I have never been disappointed, and doubt if I ever will. Buy from APMEX and never be surprised at what you get. If you buy BU. you can count on receiving BU coins.

this is the seventh or eighth roll of Mercury dimes I’ve purchased in the past year or so from APMEX, again I’m pleasantly surprised, not that I’m a coin collecting expert in any sense, but I do appreciate the beauty of these silver dimes. I have no delusion of amassing a fortune in silver dimes, so I take my time and clean each one(vinegar and baking soda), and polish each one to a brilliant shine, leaving them displayed around my home. I love buying from APMEX in that the dimes are varied dates and mint marks as well as condition. this latest roll was not the best one I’ve gotten, but they say up front it’s luck of the draw, the approximate break down was 30 coins from 1938-1945 most Philly mm, 5 years with either a d or s mm as well and two years with all three. the other 20 coins being 16 from the 1930’s, two from the 20’s and one 1917 with four of the dates from 1930-1937 having different mm’s, I’m very happy with this purchase, and I am in fact cleaning and polishing them as I write this review. I have purchased rolls of these dimes from 5 other company’s none of which come close to APMEX’s prices, quality (grade), selection of dates and mint marks, not even close. APMEX, in my opinion, has, by far, the highest standards of any of the large bullion/coin outfits. in addition to the product they provide thier customer service is five star as well- a single email to that dept will get you a timely response and a fair resolution to whatever issue you have encountered. I feel badly reading some folks reviews on here describing receiving a roll of these dimes which they thought were intentionally searched and anything good was removed, I don’t believe this is the case, if you do recieve a poor selection of coins in a roll or two, save up and buy a couple more, they are sold as random and I believe that’s exactly what they are, you are just as liable to recieve a roll all from the teens, twenties and thirties, with a smattering of fourties’ as you are of a roll of all 1942-1945. these rolls are, truly, luck of the draw. I would recommend buying coins from APMEX to my immediate family without hesitation. saving up to make my next order. Thank You, David

Good selection of years. Happy with the coins I received. Most weighed the same as a mint state silver dime. With only a few being heavily worn. Planning on purchases more "junk" silver through Apmex!
