The 1923 Mercury Dime was struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a recorded mintage of 50,130,000 coins — the 61st-lowest of the 77 circulation-strike issues in the mercury dime series, and 89% of the 56,570,000 mercury dimes the Mint produced across all facilities in 1923.
No dimes at all were struck in 1922 - the series simply skips a year.
