Mercury Dime
The Mercury dime is a ten-cent coin struck by the United States Mint from
1916 to 1945. Designed by Adolph Weinman and sometimes referred to as
the Winged Liberty dime, it gained its common name as the obverse
depiction of a young Liberty, identifiable by her winged Phrygian cap, was
confused with the Roman god Mercury. Weinman is believed to have used
Elsie Stevens, the wife of lawyer and poet Wallace Stevens, as a model. The
coin's reverse depicts a fasces, symbolizing unity and strength, and an olive
branch, signifying peace.
