Overview

Historical significance

The Roosevelt Dime was first issued in 1946, shortly after the death of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, to honor his efforts in fighting polio (he was a victim of the disease) and for his leadership during World War II and the Great Depression. The dime’s release was particularly poignant, as Roosevelt had a personal connection to the March of Dimes charity, which used dimes to fund polio research.

Estimated value

For a 1995-D Roosevelt Dime in average circulated condition, the value is typically its face value, "$0.10". Uncirculated examples might fetch slightly more, generally "$0.25 - $1.00", depending on grading and rarity for that specific year and mint mark. Exceptionally high-grade examples can command more.

Care & preservation

To preserve its condition, avoid cleaning the coin, as this can devalue it significantly. Handle the coin by its edges to prevent transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in an inert holder like a Mylar flip or a non-PVC coin slab, to protect it from environmental damage and physical scratches.
