The 1927-S Mercury dime is easy to locate in circulated grades and widely available in the lower uncirculated grades, though this becomes one of the tougher issues in MS65 or above. Full Bands examples are available for a price, though Gem examples in MS66 are quite rare and command exceptional premiums.
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.
