1944 Mercury Dime: Value & Rarity

The Mercury Dime, minted from 1916-1945, is a ten-cent coin also known as the Winged Liberty Head Dime.

1944 Mercury Dimes are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, weighing 2.5 grams with a diameter of 17.9mm.

Most 1944 Mercury Dimes are common, but those with Full Bands on the fasces are highly valued by collectors.

The value of a 1944 Mercury Dime can range from a few dollars to over a thousand, depending on condition and mint mark.

Mint marks on the 1944 Dime include 'P' for Philadelphia, 'D' for Denver, and 'S' for San Francisco.

The 'D' and 'S' mint marks are generally more valuable than the 'P', with 'S' being the rarest.

Condition grades range from Good (G) to Mint State (MS), with MS-graded coins fetching the highest prices.

Special attention should be given to the 1944 Dime with no mint mark as it may be a rare overdate error coin.

To maintain value, store your 1944 Mercury Dime in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and chemicals.
