I had a bunch of coins that I was going to take to the Coin-Star machine and noticed these two dimes that looked different. They are American coins.

You have what are called Winged Liberty Head dimes more commonly called Mercury dimes. Neither date is scarce. The coin if it has a mint mark, that mark will be on the reverse near the E in the word one. The ones with a mint mark are worth more. If the coin is in a lower circulated grade it is worth about 8 times face value for its silver. Higher grades have higher values. The item on the reverse is called a fasces and the more sticks you can see and the more lines their, the more it is worth. If there is no mint mark and the coin has some of the lines on it then it is worth around $2 if it has a mint mark then around $4. They are worth holding on too.

In folk magic, images of money are often used in spells to draw more money or a "lucky" coin is carried to attract finanacial good fortune. The near-universal use of this symbolism one includes the money bag charm, found in cultures as diverse as China, Europe, and the United States. Silver coins have been popular in European magic rituals from Medieval times onward. Encased coins, rolled coins, and specially-made good luck tokens are carried as lucky pocket pieces in many parts of the world, but in the United States, when it comes to standard-issue money, tradition dictates that the luckiest greenback is the rare $2.00 bill, and the luckiest coin is the silver dime. The little "LUCKY Dime Register Bank" shown here is only 2 1/2 inches square and about half an inch high, but it counts your dimes as you drop them in, all the way up to $5.00. It probably dates from the 1930s.
