How do you identify a 1945 s dime?

There are two types of 1945-S Mercury Dimes. One has a normal S mintmark (the "S" indicates that the coin was minted in San Francisco), and the other has a micro S mintmark. The micro S is the more valuable of the two. A micro S can be best identified by comparing the size of the "S" on the 1945 dime to the size of the "S" on another year of Mercury dime. In other words, you are comparing the 1945 "S" to an "S" that is sure to be normal size.


What is a 1945 micro s dime worth?

The value of a 1945 Mercury dime (often referred to as a "micro s" dime due to a small mintmark) typically ranges from $2 to $5 in circulated condition. However, if the coin is in uncirculated or high-grade condition, it can be worth significantly more, potentially exceeding $10 or more, depending on its specific grade and demand. Prices can vary based on market conditions and collector interest. Always consult a current price guide or specialist for the most accurate valuation.

What does a js stand for on a siver dime?

The "JS" on a silver dime stands for "John S. McCoy," the designer's initials. McCoy was responsible for the design of the reverse side of the Mercury dime, which was minted from 1916 to 1945. The Mercury dime features a depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap, and the "JS" is a subtle nod to the artist's contribution to this iconic coin.

Where was the mercury dime minted?

The Mercury Dime was minted in all three mints, Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. Not all three mints minted the Mercury dime every year. There were no Mercury dimes from the Denver mint in 1923-D or 1930-D. If you ever see one, it's a counterfeit coin. There was never a 1934-S dime minted either.
