Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/25/2017 2:48 pm It is a Winged Head Liberty dime commonly known as a Mercury dime because the winged head reminded people of Mercury messenger of the Gods. It was designed by Adolph A Weinman whose monogram appears in the right field above the date. The design was used from 1916 to 1945 and is made of 90% silver 10 % copper. The 1941 is a very common date (they made over 175 million of them) and in worn condition carries no real premium value over that of the value of the metal it is made form, currently between one and two dollars.
