1967 Dime - Excellent Condition
The Roosevelt Dime was introduced in 1946, shortly after the conclusion of World War II and less than one year after the death Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States. This type of 10-cent came to replace the Mercury Dime that ceased to be minted in 1945. The reverse design features a lit torch at center with an olive branch and oak branch positioned to each side. While sitting for a portrait on April 12, 1945, Franklin Delano Roosevelt suddenly complained about a severe headache, slumped forward unconscious, and passed away later that same day.
In 1965 all coins that were traditionally made from 90% silver and 10% copper were replaced by base metal coins. Initially, its composition was 90% silver and 10% copper, but this was changed in 1965 due to the cost of using silver. The US Mint adopted a clad “sandwich” of copper and nickel. This coin is made out of a clad material, meaning that the outer layer is a mixture of copper and nickel, while the inside core is solid copper. No mint marks were used on 1965 to 1967 dimes.
