Additional Description: This lot includes multiple U.S. dimes dated 1942, along with single examples from 1941 and 1943, all part of the Mercury dime series. Struck in 90% silver, these coins were produced during the early 1940s, a period marked by increased mintages to support the wartime economy. The 1942 issue is notable for being one of the most widely produced in the series, while the 1941 and 1943 dimes similarly reflect the steady output of U.S. coinage during World War II.
