1929 Mercury Dime VG-F condition

The 1929 Mercury Dime is a highly sought-after coin by collectors due to its rarity and historical significance. Made of 90% silver and 10% copper, the dime features a portrait of Lady Liberty wearing a winged cap on one side and a fasces, an ancient Roman symbol of strength, on the other. Only around 6 million of these dimes were produced in 1929, making them relatively scarce. Additionally, the dime was minted during the Great Depression, adding to its historical significance and value. Condition, rarity, and demand all contribute to the coin's current value, with well-preserved specimens selling for significant amounts at auction.
