🪙✨ Mercury Dime (900 Silver) — A coin with legacy, luck, and a little Lady Liberty.
This vintage silver dime isn’t just currency—it’s folk magick in your palm. Though popularly called a “Mercury Dime,” the image is actually Lady Liberty wearing a winged cap, symbolizing freedom of thought. Legend has it she was modeled after Elsie Stevens, muse and mystery rolled into one.

These dimes have long been used in gambling mojos, worn around the ankle with red thread, or strung into necklaces for protection against curses and poison. Some practitioners even file the dime and add shavings to their nation sack or mojo bag—because sometimes, a little silver goes a long way.

💫 Coins in folk magick? Oh, it’s a global affair:
•     England: Bent sixpence coins offered to spirits or tucked into a bride’s shoe for luck.
•     Germany: SATOR squares scratched onto coins to extinguish fire.
•     Netherlands: Find a coin, spit on it—instant luck.
•     Ancient Greece & Rome: Coins placed on the eyes or in the mouth of the dead as tolls for Charon, the ferryman of souls.
And if you’re a collector or a leap-year witch, keep your eyes peeled—Mercury Dimes from leap years are especially prized.
