Product Details
The 2016 Mercury Dime Centennial Gold coin pays homage to one of the many coin designs issued during what is known as the "Renaissance of American Coinage". Adolph A. Weinman’s original Winged Liberty design is considered one of the most beautiful coins of all time.
In 2016, the U.S. mint marked the centenary of three numismatic icons with the release of the 1/10 oz Gold Mercury Dime, 1/4 oz Gold Standing Liberty Quarter, and 1/2 oz Gold Walking Liberty Half Dollar Centennial Gold coins. Each of these coins features an allegorical representation of Liberty, being the last design of each denomination to do so.
Each coin is encapsulated and hand packaged in a custom, black-matte hardwood presentation case and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The mint's goal is to match each gold coin to the size and diameter of their original silver coin from 1916. Plans are to issue business strikes only, meaning no proof or uncirculated versions will be issued.
