Overview

A small, silver-colored United States ten-cent coin featuring Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Historical significance

The Roosevelt dime was introduced in 1946 to honor Franklin D. Roosevelt after his death, following his leadership during WWII and his support for the March of Dimes.

Obverse (front)

Features a left-facing profile of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the legend 'LIBERTY', domestic motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST', the date '2002', and the 'P' mint mark. Designed by John R. Sinnock.

Reverse (back)

Depicts a torch (symbolizing Liberty), an olive branch (Peace), and an oak branch (Strength/Victory). Legends include 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', and 'ONE DIME'.

Estimated value

$0.10 in circulated condition; $1-$3 in high Mint State uncirculated grades.

What drives this coin's value

Most influenced by the date/mint mark and overall condition (grade). Modern dimes are generally only worth face value unless in perfect uncirculated condition or with major errors.

Grade assessment

Circulated (approx. Extremely Fine/About Uncirculated based on visible surface marks).

Mintage & rarity

Common; 1,299,500,000 produced at the Philadelphia mint in 2002.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Check for the copper-colored core visible on the edge. Counterfeits of common dates like 2002 are extremely rare because the coin is worth face value.

Notable varieties & errors

Errors such as doubled dies or off-center strikes are sought after, though no major widespread varieties exist for this specific date/mint mark combination cataloged as high value. Small 'extra metal' or die chip errors may occur occasionally.

Similar coins

Silver Roosevelt dimes (1946-1964) look identical but have a different sound and no copper edge streak.

Care & preservation

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning, as it can damage the surface and lower numismatic value. Handle by the edges.
