Coin / United States of America / 2013 / Philadelphia / Roosevelt Dimes / 10¢ (Ten Cents, Dime)

The coin described is a 2013 Roosevelt Dime, a denomination of 10 cents from the United States, specifically produced with a mint mark of 'P,' indicating it was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. The Roosevelt Dime is a part of the modern series and was first minted in 1946 in honor of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. This particular coin features a diameter of 17.9 mm and weighs approximately 2.27 grams, constructed from a copper-nickel clad copper material. The high mintage figure of 1,086,500,000 pieces suggests that it was widely produced during its year of minting, making it relatively common among collectors. With its simple yet elegant design, the obverse displays a profile of President Roosevelt, while the reverse features a depiction of a torch with olive and oak branches, symbolizing liberty and peace. The 2013 Roosevelt Dime is categorized under general coins and is part of the broader series of U.S. coins. It is valued primarily for its numismatic interest and face value, as many coins from this era, especially those with high mintage, are typically not sought after for significant premium pricing. However, it's a classic piece of U.S. currency, reflecting both historical significance and the craftsmanship of American minting.
