The 1940 Mercury Dime is a highly collectible proof issue from one of America’s most iconic coin series. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a modest mintage of only 11,827 coins, these proofs highlight the artistry of Adolph A. Weinman’s celebrated Winged Liberty design. Collectors prize them for their low availability and outstanding detail.

This example is graded PCGS PR64 and is housed in the sought-after Old Green Holder (OGH), a certification style admired for its vintage appeal and conservative grading standards. The coin offers mirrored fields, attractive contrast, and strong eye appeal for the grade.

While 651 examples are currently graded PR64 by PCGS, it’s estimated that 15 or fewer reside in OGH holders, making this piece especially scarce among its peers. For collectors who value holder pedigree and certification history, this coin stands out as a true prize.

The Mercury Dime series is one of the most beloved in U.S. numismatics, and proof issues like this 1940 example are essential to any advanced collection. Combining rarity, condition, and holder desirability, it checks every box for both specialists and type collectors.

Key Features:

  • Year: 1940 Mercury Dime – Proof Issue

  • Certified PCGS PR64 in an Old Green Holder

  • Mintage: 11,827; PCGS population of 651 in PR64

  • Estimated OGH population of 15 or fewer examples

This coin offers an outstanding blend of condition, rarity, and vintage holder appeal—a perfect addition for any serious Mercury Dime or U.S. proof coin collector.
