The 1923 Philadelphia Mercury dime marks the first year of production for this series since 1921, with a break in 1922 in part brought on by a mild recession. 1923 Mercury dimes are common in circulated grades and scarce in uncirculated grades. Among Mint State pieces, many exhibit strong strike and brilliant luster.

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.
