The 1920-D Mercury dime is common in lower circulated grades but is much tougher in grades of XF to AU or higher. In uncirculated grades, this Denver-mint issue is downright scarce, with Full Bands pieces even rarer still. Gems, rare enough to render this issue a conditional semi-key coin, command strong premiums.
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.
