Overview

Historical significance

The Roosevelt Dime was first issued in 1946, shortly after President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, in honor of his efforts in fighting polio (he helped found the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, which became the March of Dimes). The design has largely remained unchanged since its introduction.

Estimated value

Circulated 1982 Roosevelt Dimes are generally worth their face value, which is 10 cents. Uncirculated examples can be worth a bit more, typically ranging from $0.25 to $1, depending on their condition and mint mark (though the image does not show a mint mark, which for 1982 would often be a 'P' for Philadelphia, 'D' for Denver or an 'S' for San Francisco proof coins).

Care & preservation

Handle coins by their edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin, which can cause discoloration over time. Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in acid-free holders or albums designed for coin storage, to prevent environmental damage and preserve their condition. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can often decrease its numismatic value.
