Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States.  This  replaced 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1965 all coins that were traditionally made from 90% silver and 10% copper were replaced by base metal coins 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIssuer\tUnited States \u003cbr\u003ePeriod\tFederal republic (1776-date)\u003cbr\u003eType\tStandard circulation coin\u003cbr\u003eYears\t1965-2022\u003cbr\u003eValue\t10 Cents = 1 Dime (0.1 USD)\u003cbr\u003eCurrency\tDollar (1785-date)\u003cbr\u003eComposition\tCopper-nickel clad copper\u003cbr\u003eWeight\t        2.268 g\u003cbr\u003eDiameter\t17.91 mm\u003cbr\u003eThickness\t1.35 \u003cbr\u003eMintage:   766 180 000","brand":"Treasure Hunter Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46050121253161,"sku":"Tube R22","price":2.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1540\/3049\/products\/il_fullxfull.4031494393_faa9.jpg?v=1691787662","url":"https:\/\/treasurehunterco.com\/products\/1993-p-roosevelt-dime-excellent-condition","provider":"Treasure Hunter Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
