History

The Roosevelt Dime was introduced in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt following his death in 1945. The coin features Roosevelt's profile on the obverse and a torch flanked by olive and oak branches on the reverse, symbolizing liberty, peace, and strength. Roosevelt dimes have been minted continuously since their introduction and remain in circulation today. Mint error coins attract a dedicated community of numismatists and error coin collectors who value unusual production anomalies. Errors such as off-center strikes, double dies, missing rim details, and die chips can significantly increase a coin's value depending on the severity and rarity of the error. These coins are particularly appealing to collectors who appreciate the uniqueness and historical production quirks that make each error coin one-of-a-kind.
