1926-S Mercury dimes are plentiful in circulated grades, though in XF and AU this piece becomes decidedly tougher. Uncirculated pieces are quite scarce and Gems are rare. All told, there are but perhaps 100 to 200 pieces in MS65 or above, regardless of Full Bands designation.
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.
