1920 Mercury dimes from the Philadelphia Mint are common coin in circulated grades and are scarcer in the uncirculated levels, though plentiful enough to meet collector demands. Many are well struck, exhibiting Full Bands details and overall excellent eye appeal.

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.
