90% Silver Uncirculated Roosevelt Dimes 1000 pcs.

The dime is the smallest and thinnest coin, in all of the US coins minted, that was authorized by the Coinage Act of 1792 . Among US currency, there was a strong desire for a smaller denomination of the US dollar. The Seated Liberty dime was the first dime to contain 90% silver in its alloy structure; before that, the dime's silver content was slight below the 90% line. The Roosevelt dime is the most current design in US coinage. President Franklin Roosevelt passed away in 1945 and sooner after, a legislation was introduced to update the dime's design and feature the beloved late president. By honoring Roosevelt, with a dime named after him, his efforts of funding the cure for polio would be remembered forever. Until 1965, the Roosevelt dime contained 90% silver, 10% copper. The Silver Uncirculated Roosevelt Dimes comes in a bag of 1,000 coins, containing $100 face value. All of the dimes, in this bag, are in uncirculated condition but may contain bag marks.
