Demand for early copper and Colonial-era numismatic treasures drives strong results in Heritage Auctions' July 13 Early Copper & Colonial U.S. Coins Showcase Auction

Similar to many other pre-1934 S-mint Mercury dimes, the 1925-S Mercury dime is, in low-end circulated grades, plentiful enough to satisfy numismatic demand. However, it is much tougher in the uncirculated levels. Examples grading MS65 or above are downright rare. There is a rather small supply of Full Bands specimens, and these tough coins usually command strong premiums, particularly above MS65.
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.
