1917 Mercury dimes are common in all grades, even in lower uncirculated grades. However, it is somewhat rare in Gem grades, particularly above MS66. The 1917 Philadelphia Mercury dime is generally well struck, with many pieces exhibiting Full Bands details, attractive finish, and nice luster.

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.
