The coin in question is a 2007 Roosevelt Dime, minted in Denver, USA. This particular dime has a denomination of 10¢ and features the iconic design by John R. Sinnock, which depicts President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and a torch, olive branch, and oak branch on the reverse, symbolizing freedom, peace, and strength. This coin is composed of a blend of 75% copper and 25% nickel, with a pure copper core, giving it a distinctive appearance and durability. It has a diameter of 17.9 mm and weighs 2.27 grams. The edge of the coin is reeded, which helps with its identification and adds to its tactile quality. The 2007 Roosevelt Dime has a mintage of 895,628 and is categorized as a special production type. Notably, despite being minted in Denver, this particular piece does not bear a mint mark. Its design, materials, and specifications are consistent with the broader series of Roosevelt Dimes that have been produced since 1946. Overall, this coin is an interesting piece for collectors and embodies both the historical significance of its design as well as the classic features characteristic of U.S. dimes. Its relatively lower mintage may add to its appeal among numismatists interested in modern coinage.
