NEW Merc Brim Biter®
"Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication,” as Leonardo da Vinci himself might have said.
Every innovation starts — and sometimes fulfills — with a simple idea.
Simple yet undeniably innovative, the Merc Brim Biter® transforms an iconic piece of true Americana into a stylishly understated accessory of artistic fashion.
The Mercury dime is a vintage American coin from the early 20th century, minted between 1916 and 1945. Like many American coins produced before 1965, these dimes are made of 90% silver.
Each Merc Brim Biter® is handmade using a proprietary bending method that creates a clip that “bites” the brim of the hat and stays put. I actually had to build my own set of custom tools to achieve this specific configuration.
Please select your preferred choice from the following options:
High-Polish w/ Horizontal Bend
High-Polish w/ Vertical Bend
Original Matte Finish w/ Horizontal Bend
Original Matte Finish w/ Vertical Bend
18K Gold Vermeil (Plate) w/ Horizontal Bend
18 karat gold Vermeil (Plate) w/ Vertical Bend
Fun Fact #1: The Mercury dime got its name because Liberty, shown with a winged cap, resembles the Roman god Mercury with his winged helmet. However, the coin actually represents Liberty, not Mercury.
Fun Fact #2: It’s rude to copy the original ideas of artists just to make a quick buck. You have it in you to be original! Don’t be a #2.
