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 establishing the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (later known as the March of Dimes). The 1996 'P' (Philadelphia Mint) issue is a standard circulation coin.

Estimated value

For a 1996-P Roosevelt Dime in circulated condition, the value is typically its face value, 10 cents. Uncirculated examples might fetch slightly more, around $0.25 to $1.00, depending on their grade.

Care & preservation

To preserve the coin's condition, handle it by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in an acid-free holder or a coin album. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can often decrease its numismatic value.
