Dimes have been part of American coinage for more than two centuries, telling the story of a growing nation through silver and artistry. This remarkable two-coin set bridges over 50 years of American and world history, linking the year the U.S. gained exclusive rights to Pearl Harbor (1887) with the year of the fateful attack that drew America into World War II (1941). Each coin is an enduring symbol of liberty, resilience, and remembrance.

The Seated Liberty Dime (1887) was designed by Christian Gobrecht, the 3rd Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint. It features a goddess-like Lady Liberty seated upon a rock, holding a Liberty pole crowned with the Phrygian Cap of freedom. Struck for 55 years between 1837 and 1891, this design captures the spirit of a young America expanding its influence across the Pacific—culminating in its acquisition of Pearl Harbor.

The Mercury Dime (1941), designed by Adolph A. Weinman, presents Lady Liberty wearing a winged cap symbolizing freedom of thought. Mistaken often for the Roman god Mercury, this elegant design became an American classic. Its enduring beauty inspired the U.S. Mint to reuse Weinman’s artwork for the 2017 Palladium Eagle, proof of its timeless appeal.

Both historic coins are composed of 90% fine silver and come in Good to Very Good (G–VG) condition, showing the gentle wear of circulation that only adds to their character. As a special bonus, each set includes a Japanese-issued 1 Peso bill from World War II, once circulated in the occupied Philippines—a tangible relic of the conflict that began with Pearl Harbor.
