The 1965 Roosevelt Dime is a notable US coin, minted during a period when the US shifted from silver to copper-nickel clad coins. The Roosevelt Dime, introduced in 1946, features a profile of President Franklin D. Roosevelt on the obverse and a torch, olive branch, and oak branch on the reverse, symbolizing liberty, peace, and strength, respectively. Dimes from 1965 and later do not contain silver, unlike earlier issues, which affects their collectible value compared to silver dimes. Collectors often seek Roosevelt Dimes for both their historical significance and as part of complete sets.
