U.S. Mint’s Best of the Mint Mercury Dime Set Launches
June 4, 2026
The United States Mint launches its first Best of the Mint set today, adding another 250th anniversary product tied to one of the nation’s iconic coin designs. The Best of the Mint 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin and Silver Medal Set goes on sale at noon ET.
Priced at $810, the set celebrates the historic 1916 Mercury dime, also known as the Winged Liberty dime. The one-tenth-ounce, 24-karat gold coin faithfully reproduces Adolph A. Weinman’s original designs used from 1916 to 1945, with an added Liberty Bell privy mark bearing the numeral "250" in recognition of the nation’s Semiquincentennial. The accompanying silver medal features new complementary artwork inspired by the classic coin.
