Overview

Small silver-colored coin featuring the left-facing profile of Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse.

Historical significance

The Roosevelt dime was introduced in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt following his death in 1945. He was chosen for the dime due to his association with the March of Dimes charity, which he helped found to combat polio.

Estimated value

Face value ($0.10) for modern clad versions; approximately $1.50 - $2.00 for silver versions (1946-1964) based on melt value.

Care & preservation

Handle by the edges to avoid transferring finger oils to the surface. Store in a PVC-free coin holder or a cool, dry place. Do not clean or polish the coin, as this can significantly reduce its collector value.
