United States 1964 One Dime Silver

Key Facts & Value

Key Fact

Historical significanceThe 1964 Dime is notable as it was the last year that dimes were minted in 90% silver. Post-1964, the U.S. Mint transitioned to a copper-nickel alloy due to rising silver prices.

Artist InformationJohn R. Sinnock, who designed the obverse of the dime featuring Franklin D. Roosevelt, was an accomplished engraver who contributed significantly to American coinage.

Cultural ImpactThe dime represents not just currency but also the legacy of President Roosevelt, whose New Deal policies aimed to revive the American economy during the Great Depression.

Value Fact

The value of the 1964 Dime can vary significantly based on its condition and mint mark. In uncirculated condition, the coin can command a premium price due to its silver content and historical significance. Collectors often seek coins with specific mint marks or those in pristine condition, which further enhances their desirability.

Factors such as rarity, demand, and condition can create a compelling market for this coin, making it a sought-after piece in numismatic circles.
