ya, mercs are awesome. Probably my favorite design. You know, I recieve the New York Mint catalogue (of course I don't buy anything from them) and they were selling some mercury dimes and they actually said that the figure on the coin was the god Mercury. I thought everyone knew by now that it is liberty with a winged cap.
