Overview

Historical significance

The Roosevelt Dime was first issued in 1946, shortly after President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, in honor of his leadership during World War II and his efforts in founding the March of Dimes to combat polio. It replaced the Mercury Dime.

Estimated value

Typically face value (10 cents). Uncirculated or proof specimens might fetch slightly higher values (e.g., $0.25 - $1.00 or more for special varieties/grades).

Care & preservation

For common circulation coins like this 1999 dime, special care for preservation is generally not necessary unless it's a high-grade specimen for a collection. Avoid cleaning the coin as this can decrease its value. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
