A healthy supply of 1929-S Mercury dimes ranging from the low-end circulated grades through MS65 satisfy demand, though pieces grading MS66 or better become much more challenging. Lower-level uncirculated pieces with Full Bands details are somewhat plentiful, though specimens grading MS67 or higher are tough.
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.
