Framed The Pony Express- 10 Mercury Dimes
The Mercury Dime was designed in 1916 by Adolph Weinman. The obverse displays an interpretation of a bewinged Liberty Head. The reverse, with its vertical Roman fasces bound about an axe and entwined by olive branches, met with resentment when the fascist * power in Italy chose the fasces symbol as their own. This denomination was redesigned in 1945. Offered here are 10 Mercury dimes, 7 of which are different dates, surrounded by a photograph of a mailman riding a horse. The wooden frame is 10 1/4" x 12 1/4" * and is in excellent condition. There is a hanging hook on the back of the frame. *
