1978-S Roosevelt Dime Gem Proof
The 1978-S Roosevelt Dime stands as a beautiful example of modern United States coinage, struck in proof format to highlight the fine details of its design. The obverse features a profile portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the thirty-second president of the United States. Surrounding the portrait are the inscriptions LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST, along with the 1978 date and the S mint mark, indicating its origin from the San Francisco Mint. On the reverse, the design presents a trio of symbolic elements arranged from left to right: an olive branch representing peace, a torch symbolizing liberty, and an oak branch signifying strength and independence. The legends UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE DIME border the design, accompanied by the traditional motto E PLURIBUS UNUM. This proof coin showcases a high level of craftsmanship, with sharp details and contrasting surfaces that bring the historic design elements to life.
