1996-P Roosevelt Dime

The Roosevelt Dime was introduced in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt shortly after his death in 1945. The coin was designed by John R. Sinnock and features Roosevelt's profile on the obverse and a torch flanked by olive and oak branches on the reverse. The 1996-P dime was minted at the Philadelphia Mint as part of regular circulation coinage during that year. Roosevelt Dimes are popular among coin collectors, particularly those who focus on modern U.S. coinage, error coins, and complete date-and-mintmark sets. While common-date Roosevelt Dimes in circulated condition hold minimal premium over face value, they remain accessible entry points for numismatists and are valued for their historical connection to one of America's most influential presidents. Error varieties and coins in exceptional uncirculated condition can command higher prices among specialized collectors.
