The coin in question is a Roosevelt Dime, produced in 2005 at the Denver mint. As a ten-cent coin, it has a diameter of 17.9 mm and weighs 2.27 grams. The coin features the design of renowned engraver John R. Sinnock, who was responsible for the likeness of President Franklin D. Roosevelt featured on the obverse. This particular dime is notable for its special production type and has a mintage of 1,160,000, which generally indicates a lower availability compared to standard issues. The coin is composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel, encasing a pure copper center, and features a reeded edge that provides a distinct tactile aspect. Though it carries no mint mark on this specific piece, its Denver origin is acknowledged in numismatic terms. The Roosevelt Dime series, circulating in the United States since 1946, remains a cherished representation of American coinage. Given its specifications and limited mintage, this coin can be of particular interest to collectors, especially those focusing on modern dimes.
