1950 Roosevelt Dime Gem Proof
The 1950 Roosevelt dime stands as a beautiful example of mid-century American coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this proof coin is composed of 90 percent silver, containing approximately 0.0723 troy ounces of the precious metal. Because it was produced in Philadelphia, it does not carry a mint mark, a traditional characteristic of proof coinage from this era. On the obverse, the coin displays a detailed profile portrait of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Accompanying the portrait are the legible inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST" and the date "1950". The reverse design presents a symbolic trio of elements arranged from left to right: a peaceful olive branch, a central lit torch representing liberty, and a sturdy oak branch representing strength. The surrounding legends include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and the denomination "ONE DIME".
