coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 10¢ (Ten Cents, Dime) \ Roosevelt Dimes \ 1965
The Roosevelt Dime, minted since 1946, features President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and a torch, olive branch, and oak branch on the reverse. The 1965 Roosevelt Dime is notable as it marks a transition in U.S. coinage due to the removal of silver content from dimes and quarters, converting them to a copper-nickel clad composition due to rising silver prices. These dimes, while not made of silver, are collected for their historical significance and for the complete series of post-war dimes.
