The 1965 Roosevelt Dime, minted in Philadelphia, is part of the United States ten-cent coin series featuring President Franklin D. Roosevelt. This coin is made primarily of a copper-nickel composition and weighs 2.5 grams. Collectors often seek it due to its historical significance and as part of a complete set of Roosevelt Dimes, which were first introduced in 1946 to honor Roosevelt's legacy. The 1965 issue is particularly notable as it marks one of the years when the U.S. transitioned away from silver content in dimes.
