Overview

Historical significance

The Roosevelt Dime was first issued in 1946, shortly after President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, to honor his contributions, particularly his leadership during World War II and his efforts in establishing the March of Dimes to combat polio. The 1998 dime is a common modern circulating coin, part of the continuous series that began in 1946.

Estimated value

The 1998 Roosevelt Dime is a very common coin in circulated condition and is typically worth its face value ($0.10) to a slight premium (perhaps $0.10 - $0.25) in uncirculated condition for collectors. Coins with a 'P' mint mark (Philadelphia) or 'D' mint mark (Denver) are generally worth the same. Coins with an 'S' mint mark from this year would be proof coins and would hold a higher value, but this coin appears to be a business strike.

Care & preservation

For a common circulating coin like the 1998 Roosevelt Dime, extensive care is not typically necessary for its monetary value. If kept for sentimental reasons or as part of a type set, handle the coin by its edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in an album or holder designed for coin storage to protect it from environmental damage and scratches. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can often decrease its value.
