Perfect for any collection, add this Roosevelt Dime to your cart today! Roosevelt Dime - Background & Design: The Roosevelt dime is the current dime, or ten-cent piece, of the United States. Struck by the United States Mint continuously since 1946, it displays President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and was authorized soon after his death in 1945. Roosevelt had been stricken with polio, and was one of the moving forces of the March of Dimes. The ten-cent coin could be changed by the Mint without the need for congressional action, and officials moved quickly to replace the Mercury dime. Chief Engraver John R. Sinnock prepared models, but faced repeated criticism from the Commission of Fine Arts. He modified his design in response, and the coin went into circulation in January 1946. The obverse of the dime depicts President Roosevelt, with the inscriptions LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST. Sinnock's initials, JS, are found by the cutoff of the bust, to the left of the date. The reverse shows a torch in the center, representing liberty, flanked by an olive sprig representing peace, and one of oak symbolizing strength and independence. The inscription E PLURIBUS UNUM (out of many, one) stretches across the field. The name of the country and the value of the coin are the legends that surround the reverse design, which is symbolic of the victorious end of World War II. Get your investment now! Roosevelt Silver Dime - Grading Scale & Guidelines: As understood and in relation to condition notes and guidelines, a Roosevelt Dime in "Brilliant Uncirculated" condition may have very minor traces of wear or abrasions visible on only the highest points on the coin. Minor luster may be present and the surface should be well-preserved. Significant nicks and bag marks should be at a minimum. Obverse: Fine lines of the hair must be visible without dulling. Roosevelt's cheek below the eye is quick to wear; unbroken texture of luster may remain. High profile as well; the jaw line below the ear is undisturbed, indicating the uncirculated condition. Reverse: The flames on the torch are inspected for minor to no breaks in shine and smoothing. The Olive and Oak leaves may be abraded but not showing wear. A check of the tops of the lettering to ensure distinct lettering.
