The 1928 Mercury dime is common in circulated grades and available in decent supplies in the uncirculated grades, too. Many uncirculated specimens exhibit strong strikes and thus Full Bands examples of this issue can be found with relative ease through MS66, with higher-graded pieces proving very scarce.
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.
