The 1939 Philadelphia Mercury dime is a common coin in all circulated grades and is readily available in grades through Gem levels. Most extant uncirculated specimens exhibit decent, though not outstanding strike, though perhaps a couple thousand uncirculated examples show Full Bands details and can be found in large numbers through at least MS67.
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.
