The 1949 Roosevelt Dime, minted in Philadelphia, is a collectible coin that holds significance in United States numismatics. Made of a blend of copper and nickel, this ten-cent piece features the profile of President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and a torch surrounded by an olive branch and oak branch on the reverse. The Philadelphia mintmark is absent, as coins from this mint typically do not carry a mintmark before 1980. The 1949 Roosevelt Dime is sought after by collectors due to its historical context and availability, with specific grades affecting its value significantly.
