The 1917-S Mercury dime is the highest-mintage S mint issue in the series from before the 1940s and is rather common in the circulated grades. Uncirculated pieces are scarce and Gems verge on rare, but those that are available generally exhibit nice luster and good strike. Full Bands specimens are very scarce, but not exceptionally so for this period of the series.
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.
