Roosevelt Dime - Background & Design: The Roosevelt dime, a fundamental component of United States currency, bears a distinctive legacy. Its production was initiated in 1946 following the authorization prompted by President Franklin D. Roosevelt's passing in 1945. This remarkable coin serves as a tribute to Roosevelt's enduring influence and his connection with the March of Dimes, prominently featuring his portrait on the obverse. The transition from the preceding Mercury dime to the Roosevelt dime occurred smoothly without necessitating congressional action, enabling a swift replacement process. Chief Engraver John R. Sinnock, despite facing design challenges, adeptly made necessary modifications to meet the expectations of the Commission of Fine Arts, leading to its release in January 1946. The obverse showcases a distinguished profile of President Roosevelt, accompanied by inscriptions of LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST. Sinnock's initials, JS, can be found near the truncation of the bust. On the reverse side, a torch symbolizing liberty takes center stage, flanked by an olive sprig representing peace and an oak branch symbolizing strength and independence. The inscription E PLURIBUS UNUM stretches across the field, emphasizing unity amidst diversity. Surrounding the reverse design, the country's name and the coin's denomination serve as a symbolic tribute to the victorious conclusion of World War II. Don't miss the opportunity to secure this historically significant coin and enrich your collection with a piece of enduring legacy. Roosevelt Silver Dime - Grading Scale & Guidelines: In "Very Fine" condition, a Roosevelt Dime displays noticeable yet moderate wear, with discernible details that distinguish it from coins in lesser states of preservation. The surface texture may have developed a degree of smoothness due to handling and limited circulation, with subtle remnants of luster that hint at its original mint brilliance. While some nicks and bag marks are expected, they shouldn't dominate the overall appearance, reflecting the coin's history without overwhelming its design. On the obverse side, the fine lines in the hair might exhibit partial wear, but there should be a trace of their original definition, demonstrating the coin's relative state of preservation. Roosevelt's cheek, particularly below the eye, would likely show moderate wear, but some texture of luster could still be discerned in certain areas, contributing to the coin's overall appeal. The high relief, including the jawline below the ear, is anticipated to show signs of wear, but a fair amount of detail should remain, indicating its circulated yet well-maintained condition. Turning to the reverse, the flames on the torch may show interruptions in shine and smoothing, reflecting handling and limited circulation. The Olive and Oak leaves are likely to display abrasions and moderate signs of wear, but there should be a reasonable level of definition, allowing the design elements to retain their character. An examination of the tops of the lettering should reveal a level of sharpness, consistent with the coin's "Very Fine" grade, showcasing the coin's continued allure and maintaining the integrity of its historical significance.
