The 1947 Denver Roosevelt Dime, part of the United States' dime series, is a collectible coin that features a portrait of President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and a torch flanked by an olive branch and a bundle of arrows on the reverse. It was minted at the Denver Mint, indicated by the "D" mintmark. The Roosevelt Dime was first issued in 1946 to commemorate the late president, and the 1947 Denver issue is sought after by collectors, particularly in higher grades due to its lower mintage compared to other years. As a ten-cent coin, it is composed of a copper-nickel clad alloy, which contributes to its durability and recognizability in the numismatic market.
