The Roosevelt Dimes were brought out in 1946 to commemorate President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s contribution to the world. He was elected for four consecutive terms and he died in office on April 12, 1945.

In order to honor him, the Mint released the Roosevelt Dime. The Roosevelt Dime had a composition of 90% silver and 10% copper since its first release in 1946 till 1964. After the passage of the Coinage Act of 1965, the coin’s composition was changed from silver and copper to just copper and nickel without any silver in it. This Act leads to people hoarding the silver dimes, thereby the silver dimes slowly disappeared from circulation.

The designer of the coin is John R. Sinnck, the chief engraver of the US Mint at that time. Although his first design was rejected by the Commission, the Mint went ahead and used his second design in which he had done the required alterations. Upon its release, the anti-communist minds felt that the artist’s initial JS stood for Joseph Stalin which was placed by a Russian agent in the Mint. However, the Mint was quick enough to release a clarification stating that the initials “JS” in fact stood for John Ray Sinnock.

Sinnock's design on the obverse featured a left-facing bust portrait of President Franklin D. Roosevelt also popularly known as FDR. On the reverse, he had designed an olive branch, a torch, and an oak branch standing in line which symbolizes Peace, Liberty, and Strength respectively.

The Roosevelt Dimes from 1946-1964 are very sought after coins due to their historical significance as well as high silver content. It is also easy to complete this set as it was only minted for a short period and also there are not many rare dates in this series.
